Electromagnetic induction — practice question

(a)[2]

State Faraday’s law relating to electromagnetic induction.

(b)

A solenoid $S$ has a small coil $C$ positioned close to one end, as illustrated in Fig. 11.1.

(b(i))[1]

State two times at which no electromotive force (e.m.f.) is induced in coil $C$.

(b(ii))[1]

State two times at which the induced e.m.f. in coil $C$ is at a maximum, but with opposite polarities.

(c)[3]

In (b), the alternating current in solenoid $S$ is replaced by a constant current of $5.0\,\text{A}$. Calculate the average e.m.f. induced in coil $C$ when the current in solenoid $S$ is reversed in a time of $6.0\,\text{ms}$.
