JEE Main 2020Electromagnetic Induction Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2020 (Online) 7th January Morning Slot

Question

A long solenoid of radius R carries a time (t) - dependent current
I(t)=I0t(1 - t). A ring of radius 2R is placed coaxially near its middle. During the time interval 0 t 1, the induced current (IR) and the induced EMF(VR) in the ring change as :

Correct answer
DAt t = 0.5 direction of IR reverses and VR is zero

Step-by-step explanation

I(t) = I0t(1 - t)

We know, = BA

= 0nIA

= 0nAI0(t - t2)

Also VR =

= - 0nAI0(1 - 2t)

VR = 0 when 1 - 2t = 0

t = 0.5

Also we know, VR = IRr

IR =

after t = 0.5, IR reverses its direction.
