How to Calculate Time Dependent Magnetic Field with Faraday's Law

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating time-dependent magnetic fields using Faraday's Law and Maxwell's equations. Participants emphasize the importance of the equation ∇ x E = -∂B/∂t and suggest using the concept of magnetic flux (Φ) to compute dΦ/dt for the area in question. The correct approach leads to a solution of 10A for the current (i), clarifying the relationship between magnetic fields and induced electromotive force (EMF). This highlights the necessity of understanding both Faraday's Law and Maxwell's equations in solving such problems.

Homework Statement


See attached photo. It has question and answers.

Homework Equations


Maybe integral of B.dL=Mo i ? I'm not sure

The Attempt at a Solution


I tried using the above equation and solved for i but it gives i with respect to time and the answer is 10A. I'm not sure how to get an answer without t.

Y ou're not thinking of the right law.
Think Maxwell, specifically ∇ x E = -∂B/∂t. Then go to Stokes.

EDIT: Or Faraday: compute the whole dΦ/dt for your area. I guess that is more straight-forward.
(You can do this in your head!)
