Q1 Flux Linkage Change

A coil has turns. The magnetic flux through each turn changes uniformly from to in .

  1. Calculate the change in flux linkage. [2]
  2. Calculate the magnitude of the induced emf. [2]
  3. State how the induced current direction is determined. [1]

Q2 Motional emf

A conducting rod of length moves at perpendicular to a magnetic field of flux density .

  1. Calculate the induced emf. [2]
  2. If circuit resistance is , calculate the induced current. [2]
  3. Explain why an external force is required to keep the rod moving at constant speed. [2]

Q3 Lenz Law

A north pole of a magnet is pushed into a coil connected to a galvanometer.

  1. Explain why an emf is induced. [2]
  2. State the magnetic polarity induced at the near end of the coil. [1]
  3. Explain the energy reason behind this polarity. [2]
