Induced magnetic flux through a coil

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on calculating the total magnetic flux through a circular coil with 100 turns in response to a time-varying external magnetic flux density applied along the z-axis. The total magnetic flux is expressed as a function of the external magnetic flux and the induced flux, with the equation Φt = BA - Φi. The challenge lies in determining the induced magnetic flux, which requires knowledge of how the magnetic flux density B varies over time. The provided formula for B complicates the process, as it remains a variable dependent on time. The relationship between induced EMF and magnetic flux is highlighted, emphasizing the need to derive flux from the induced EMF.

Homework Statement


A circular conducting coil with N=100 turns and radius "r" is oriented in the xy plane. The leads of the coil are connected to a circuit with resistance "R." A time varying external magnetic flux density "B" is applied along the z-axis.

What is the total magnetic flux through the coil as a function of time?

Homework Equations


Φ = BA

The Attempt at a Solution


Φt = Φb - Φi
Φt = BA - Φi

(where Φt is the total magnetic flux through the coil, Φb is the externally applied magnetic flux and Φi is flux induced by lenz's law).

I am aware that there is an induced magnetic flux but cannot figure out how to determine it from the external magnetic flux. Is there just some equation I can't seem to locate?

Are you sure that's the whole problem? You can't determine the induced magnetic flux unless you know how B varies with time, because induced EMF is equal to negative the change the magnetic flux.
 
They do give you a formula for B,

B = Bi(1 - 3(t/ti)^2 + (t/ti)^3)

Everything is still left as a variable.

So from this then, E = -N(dΦ/dt) = -100*Bi(1 - 3(t/ti)^2 + (t/ti)^3) ?

And then how do I get flux from this emf?

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'
The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
