### 2nd PUC Physics Electro Magnetic Induction Three Marks Questions and Answers

Question 1.
What is electromagnetic induction? Explain.
The phenomenon in which an ernf and hence a current is induced in a closed circuit, due to a change in the magnetic flux linked with it, is called electromagnetic induction.

Whenever there is a relative motion between the magnet and the coil, a momentary current is induced, resulting in a momentary deflection in the galvanotneter. When the magnet moves towards the coil the magnetic flux linked with the coil increases, and when moved away from the coil, the flux decreases.

Question 2.
Give the expression for mutual inductance between a the pair of coaxial solenoids of same length. Give the meaning of the symbols used.
M12 M21 = $$\frac{\mu_{0} \mu_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{N}_{1} \mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{A}_{1}}{l}$$
Where, N1, N2 represent number of turns in coil (1) and (2) and A1 represents area of cross section of the inner solenoid.

Question 3.
Define self inductance of a solenoid. On what factors does it depend?
The phenomenon in which an emf is induced in a coil due to the change of current through it under resonance, is known as self induction. The property of a coil to oppose any change of current in it, is known as self inductance. The self inductance depends on,

• its length
• number of turns
• area of cross section and
• permeability of the material used as its core.

L = $$\frac{\mu_{0} \mu_{r} N^{2} A}{l}$$

Question 4.
Define mutual inductance between a pair of coils. On what factors does it depend?
The phenomenon in which a change of current in one coil induces an emf in a neighbouring coil is called mutual induction. Mutual inductance between a pair of coils is numerically equal to the emf induced in the secondary coil when the current through the primary coil changes at unit rate.
Mutual inductance depends on,

• the number of turns in both the coils
• the area of the inner coil,
• the length of primary coil and
• the magnetic permeability of the core on which the primary is wound.

Question 6.
What are eddy currents? Mention any two applications of eddy currents. (March 2014, July 2014)
The circulating currents set up in bulk pieces of metal through a magnetic field are called eddy currents.
Practical applications of eddy currents:
1. Magnetic brakes work on the principle of eddy currents. When a magnetic field is applied on the rotating drum, eddy currents are induced in the drum. The eddy currents decrease steadily in magnitude as the train slows down. Thus the braking effect is quite smooth.

2. Energy meters are instruments used to measure the electrical energy consumed by the electrical appliances. A metal disc in the energy meter rotates due to eddy currents. Other applications:

3. Induction (ac) motor (rotor) is a low resistance coil placed in a rotating magnetic field. Eddy currents in a rotor, rotates it in a direction of the magnetic field.

4. Eddy currents of high frequencies are used in the induction furnace which is used to, prepare alloys by melting the constituent metals.

### 2nd PUC Physics Electro Magnetic Induction Five Marks Questions and Answers

Question 1.
Describe experiments to demonstrate electromagnetic induction.

(a) Magnet and coil experiment: If one end of a magnet is suddenly introduced into a coil connected to a sensitive galvanometer it shows a momentary deflection.

This shows that a momentary current and hence an instantaneous emf is produced in the circuit and the direction of the current depends on the pole towards the coil. The current produced is called induced current. If the magnet is withdrawn suddenly, a sudden deflection is again observed but in the opposite direction. The deflection is greater if the magnet is introduced or withdrawn quickly. No induced emf is obtained when there is no relative motion between the coil and the magnet.

(b) Coil and coil experiment: Consider two coils P and S placed closed to each other. Coil P connected to a cell through a key Sw is called the primary coil. The other coil S connected in series with a sensitive galvanometer G is called the secondary coil. On pressing Sw a momentary deflection is noticed in the galvanometer. When the key is released the galvanometer deflects in the opposite direction. However, no induced emf is obtained when a steady current flows through the primary, as long as the secondary coil is at rest.

Question 2.
What is meant by alternating current? Derive the expression for a sinusoidal e.m.f. induced in a coil rotating with uniform angular speed in a uniform magnetic field.
Current that changes in its direction once in every half cycle is called as alternating current. Let Magnetic flux, Φ = BAN cos cot ωt

The direction of ‘e’ is +ve for Φ = 0° to 180° and the induced current flows from X to Y and for Φ = 180° to 360°, the induced current flows from Y to X.

Where, epeak = e0 = BAN ω
B – Magñetic flux density,
A – Area of the conductor,
N – No. of turns.
ω – Angular frequency of rotation.

Question 3.
Obtain an expression for the motional electromotive force between the ends of a straight conductor moving in an uniform magnetic field at right angles to the field. (July 2014, March 2015)
Let ‘PQ’ represent a conductor moving with a speed ‘y’ at right angles to the magnetic flux density ‘B’ pointing perpendicular tõ the sheet of paper ami pointing towards the paper. Let RQ = x be the distance covered by the conducor. Magnetic flux ΦB = Blx.

Note : The Lorentz force acts on a charge in a conductor and acts along PQ. Work done in moving a charge ‘q’ from P to Q is
W = (Lorentz force) (displacement of the charge ‘q’)
i.e., W = (Bqv) l

Equation (1) and (2) are identical.

Question 4.
Obtain an expression for energy stored in an inductor connected to a source voltage.
When a current grows through an inductor, the induced emf opposes its growth and as such it has to do some work. Let the current flowing through the circuit at any instant t be i.
The rate of growth of current at that time = $$\frac{d i}{d t}$$
The induced emf set up in the inductor E = $$L \frac{d i}{d t}$$
The work done by the current in increasing from zero to its maximum value I, W = $$\int_{0}^{1} d W$$

This amount of work done is stored in the form of magnetic energy. We note that the self inductance is the electrical inertia which opposes the growth or decay of current in the circuit.
