JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 -6. Electromagnetic induction

Three identical coils \(C _1, C _2\) and \(C _3\) are closely placed such that they share a common axis.\(C _2\) is exactly midway.\(C _1\) carries current I in anti-clockwise direction while \(C _3\) carries current I in clockwise direction. An induced current flows through \(C _2\), will be in clockwise direction when

  1. A \( C_{1} \) and \( C_{3} \) move with equal speeds away from \( C_{2} \)
  2. B \( C_{1} \) moves towards \( C_{2} \) and \( C_{3} \) moves away from \( C_{2} \)
  3. C \( C_{1} \) moves away from \( C_{2} \) and \( C_{3} \) moves towards \( C_{2} \)
  4. D \( C_{1} \) and \( C_{3} \) move with equal speeds towards \( C_{2} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( C_{1} \) moves towards \( C_{2} \) and \( C_{3} \) moves away from \( C_{2} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic field through the coil is \( \vec{B}=(B_{C_{2}}-B_{C_{1}})\hat{i} \) \( \phi=(B_{C_{2}}-B_{C_{1}})A \) \( \epsilon=\frac{-d\phi}{dt} \) Find the direction according to Lenz's law. If coil move away then magnetic field decreases & vice versa Correct Ans. (2)
