What is the Induced Current in a Time-Varying Magnetic Field?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the induced current in a current loop with a resistance of 522 ohms and an area of 0.28 m², positioned perpendicularly to a time-varying magnetic field. The magnetic field is expressed as B = B0sin(2πft), and the calculation is performed at t = 0.30 s. A participant arrives at an induced current value of 8.42e-4 A. The use of Faraday's law of induction is referenced to support the calculation. The thread emphasizes the application of electromagnetic principles to determine induced current in a dynamic magnetic environment.

1. A current loop with a resistance R = 522 and an area A = 0.28 m2 is oriented perpendicular to a magnetic field that varies in time as sketched in the figure. What is the current induced in the loop at t = 0.30 s

2.(Hint: You can express the magnetic field in the form B=B0sin(2 f*t).)



3. I get getting the answer of 8.42e-4

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
