B)
C)
D)
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- Consider an elemental circle of thickness dr.
The induced emf in the circular path of radius r is
The resistance of circular path is The length of the path being
and tdr is the cross sectional area of current flow.
For the element the power dissipated inside the path is
The total dissipated power P is
