Faraday's Law and magnetic flux

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on whether an induced current will occur in a circular coil when a magnetic field changes, given that the magnetic field does not pass through the coil. One participant argues that no induced current will result because the magnetic field is not intersecting the coil. Another perspective suggests that if the magnetic field is oriented along the axis of the coil, a potential could still be generated, similar to isolation transformers. The conversation highlights the importance of the magnetic field's orientation and the coil's configuration in determining the presence of induced current. Ultimately, the conclusion is that the relationship between the coil and the magnetic field is crucial for understanding induced current.

Homework Statement
If there is a circular coil of radius r0 and a circular region of magnetic field of radius r1. Given that them have the same center and r0>r1, if the magnetic field changed its magnetic field strength, will there still be a induced current?
Relevant Equations
E=delta Phi/delta t
I believe that there will not be a induced current because the magnetic field does not pass through the coil.

Can you make a nice drawing that shows how you came to the conclusion?

I believe that there will not be a induced current because the magnetic field does not pass through the coil.
Assuming that the field direction is along the axis of the coil (not defined in the question as stated here*), there will be a potential generated in the coil. This is exactly what happens in isolation transformers. The current depends on how the coil is connected.
*My assumption is that the coil and the field circle are coplanar, and the field is perpendicular to the disc of the circle.
However, you could read this as the field being along the circumference of the circle, in which case your original thoughts would apply.

I wonder where does the homework and you are looking at ? No charge, no current.

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Thread 'A bead-mass oscillatory system problem'
I can't figure out how to find the velocity of the particle at 37 degrees. Basically the bead moves with velocity towards right let's call it v1. The particle moves with some velocity v2. In frame of the bead, the particle is performing circular motion. So v of particle wrt bead would be perpendicular to the string. But how would I find the velocity of particle in ground frame? I tried using vectors to figure it out and the angle is coming out to be extremely long. One equation is by work...
