SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating induced electromotive force (EMF) from a graph of magnetic field (B) versus time. The formula for EMF is established as EMF = -N * A * cos(θ) * dB/dt, where A and θ are constants. Participants emphasize the importance of accurately determining dB/dt from the graph to achieve the correct EMF value. The conversation highlights the need for clarity in the relationship between magnetic field changes and induced EMF calculations.

If i am given a graph of B(magnetic field) vs Time,how can i find the induce emf from this graph?? I know that the emf=-Nd∅/dt and ∅=BAcosθ but somehow i don't quiete arive to the right answer

Well, in BAcosθ, A and θ are kept constant, so EMF is -NAcosθ dB/dt. So what did you get for dB/dt?
