Question

Please Answer

1. The graph in the figure shows the emf produced by a generator as a function of time t. The coil for the generator has an area of

A = 0.11 m2

and consists of

N = 50 turns.

The coil rotates in a field of magnitude 0.20 T.

Concepts:
(i) Can the period of the rotating coil be determined from the graph?


(ii) The emf produced by a generator depends on its angular frequency. How is the angular frequency of the coil related to its period? (Use the following as necessary: T. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.)
=

31.4

t = 0 s,

how much time is required for the generator to produce its peak emf? Express the answer in terms of the period T of the motion

(e.g., t = (0.1) T).

(Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.)
t =

0.05

T, where T denotes the period of the coil motion.
V

(d) What is the emf when

t = 0.025 s?


V

1 4

Explanation / Answer

i) Yes

ii) = 2pi/T,   T = Period

iii) Time taken for peak emf = T/4 = 0.25*T

iv) Two times

(a) Period = T = 0.04 s

(b) Angular frequency = = 2pi/T = 2pi/0.04 = 157.1 rad/s

(c) At t = T/4, Emf is maximum

(d) At t = 0.025 s, Emf will be half of maximum emf and negative.
