A flat, circular coil has 100 turns of wire, each of radius 10cm. A uniform magnetic field exists in a direction perpendicular to plane of coil. The field is increasing at a rate of 0.1 T/s. Calculate the EMF induced in the coil.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm awful with electromagnetism.

Do you know Faraday's law? This is a pretty straight forward application of Faraday's law. Just do the EMF induced in 1 turn of the wire, and then multiply by 100 since there's 100 turns. It's just that simple.
 
It's finding the EMF induced in one turn that's the problem. I know EMF=-d\Phi/dt but I don't know how to find that when I'm just given the rate of increase of B.
 
\Phi=\int_S{BdA}

Now, since the B field is constant over that surface, and is perpendicular to that surface:

\Phi=B*A

Therefore

\frac{d\Phi}{dt}=\frac{d(B*A)}{dt}

Can you figure it out from there?
 
Thanks for your help. Iurns out I was using the circumference rather than the area, which was giving me the wrong answer!
 
Hello everyone, I’m considering a point charge q that oscillates harmonically about the origin along the z-axis, e.g. $$z_{q}(t)= A\sin(wt)$$ In a strongly simplified / quasi-instantaneous approximation I ignore retardation and take the electric field at the position ##r=(x,y,z)## simply to be the “Coulomb field at the charge’s instantaneous position”: $$E(r,t)=\frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\frac{r-r_{q}(t)}{||r-r_{q}(t)||^{3}}$$ with $$r_{q}(t)=(0,0,z_{q}(t))$$ (I’m aware this isn’t...
Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
