A long solenoid S has n turns per meter, with a radius of a. At the center of this coil, we place a smaller coil of N turns and radius b (where ). If the current in the solenoid increases linearly with time, what is the induced emf appearing in the smaller coil? Plot a graph showing the nature of variation in emf, if current varies as a function of
Explanation:-
The magnetic field caused by a solenoid is given by
.
Magnetic flux in the smaller coil is
where,
Applying Faraday's law of EMI, we have
So,
Where,
Since, current varies as a function of time, so
By solving
The negative sign signifies the opposite nature of induced emf.
