Physics 2: Electromagnetic Induction

As a steel guitar string vibrates, the component of the magnetic field perpendicular to the area of a pickup coil nearby is given by B(t) = 50 mT + (3.20 mT) Sin (1046π\cdot\pit). The circular pickup coil has 30 turns, a radius of 2.70 mm, and a resistance of 0.10 Ω\Omega. What is the magnitude of the maximum current induced in the coil?

A rectangular wire loop rests in a magnetic field as shown. Points Y and Z are grasped and pulled tight so that the area of the loop becomes zero. Determine the direction of the current through the resistor.

A conductive ring is falling through a magnetic field as shown below.

A. Sketch the direction of the induced current at each location

B. Where is the induced current the greatest?

A current carrying loop has a radius of 3 cm. The current is 7 A in the counter clockwise direction. Find the magnetic dipole moment, μ\vec{\mu}
