Magnetic Field inside Solenoid and EMF

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the electromotive force (EMF) induced in a small loop placed inside a long solenoid with n turns per meter, carrying a sinusoidally varying current of amplitude i. The correct formula for the induced EMF is identified as EMF = nABω sin(ωt), where A is the area of the loop, B is the magnetic field, and ω is the angular frequency. The initial attempt to derive the EMF using the magnetic flux approach was incorrect, leading to confusion regarding the proper application of Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.

A small loop of area A is placed inside a long solenoid that has n turns per meter and carries a sinusoidally varying current of amplitude i. The central axes of the loop and solenoid coincide. If i = i0sin ωt, find the emf in the loop.





EMFinduced = - d(\phiB)/ dt
\phiB=BA
Bsolenoid= \mu0ni





The product of B and A = A\mu0ni0sin (ωt)
So the derivative of \phiB with respect to time:
=A\mu0ni0cos (ωt) ω
so;
EMFinduced = - A\mu0ni0cos (ωt) ω

Apparently this is incorrect. I'm sorry about the sloppy formatting, could someone help me out with this?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
EMF = nABω sinωt
F(magnetism) = B • i • l
F(mag) = qvB

I don't know if that helps much, but those are a few more equations that might apply, although I think you already had them in various forms. If you had the magnitude of electrical/magnetic force or the length it might be easier. Sorry...
