A round flat metal coil has 180 turns and negligible resistance. It is connected in a series circuit with a 17-Ω resistor, with nothing else in the circuit. You measure that a 6.0-A current flows through the resistor when a magnetic field through the coil, perpendicular to its area, is changing at 3.0 T/s. What is the radius of the coil?

(A) 0.043 m

(B) 0.014 m

(C) 0.25 m

(D) 0.54 m

    Answer: C) 0.25 m

    Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the Faraday law, we have:

    ε=-dФ/dt where ε the emf induced by the change of the magnetic field given by dФ/dt.

    then ε=I*R=17*6=102 V

    We have a coil then we have the magnetic flux as follow:

    Ф=N*A*B then we have

    dФ/dt = N*A*dB/dt where A and N is the area and number of turn of the coil.

    A=π*R^2 where R is the radius of teh coil.

    Finally we have;

    dФ/dt = N*π*R^2*dB/dt then

    R = [dФ/dt / (N*π*dB/dt) ]^1/2 = [102 / (180*π*3) ]1/2=245.2*10^-3=≅0.25m
