Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Current 7 Question 27

30. A thermocol vessel contains $0.5 k g$ of distilled water at $30^{\circ} C$ . A metal coil of area $5 \times 10^{- 3} m^{2}$ , number of turns 100 , mass $0.06 k g$ and resistance $1.6 Ω$ is lying horizontally at the bottom of the vessel. A uniform time varying magnetic field is setup to pass vertically through the coil at time $t = 0$ . The field is first increased from 0 to $0.8 T$ at a constant rate between 0 and $0.2 s$ and then decreased to zero at the same rate between 0.2 and $0.4 s$ .

The cycle is repeated 12000 times. Make sketches of the current through the coil and the power dissipated in the coil as a function of time for the first two cycles. Clearly indicate the magnitudes of the quantities on the axes. Assume that no heat is lost to the vessel or the surroundings. Determine the final temperature of the water under thermal equilibrium. Specific heat of metal $= 500 J / k g - K$ and the specific heat of water $= 4200 J / k g - K$ . Neglect the inductance of coil.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 30. ${35.6}^{\circ} C$

Solution:

Magnetic field $(B)$ varies with time $(t)$ as shown in figure.

Induced emf in the coil due to change in magnetic flux passing through it, $e = \frac{d φ}{d t} = N A \frac{d B}{d t}$

Here, $A =$ Area of coil $= 5 \times 10^{- 3} m^{2}$

$N = Number of turns = 100$

Substituting the values, we get $e = (100) (5 \times 10^{- 3}) (4) = 2 V$

Therefore, current passing through the coil

$i = \frac{e}{R} or i = \frac{2}{1.6} = 1.25 A$

NOTE That from 0 to $0.2 s$ and from $0.4 s$ to $0.6 s$ , magnetic field passing through the coil increases, while during the time $0.2 s$ to $0.4 s$ and from $0.6 s$ to $0.8 s$ magnetic field passing through the coil decreases. Therefore, direction of current through the coil in these two time intervals will be opposite to each other. The variation of current (i) with time (t) will be as follows :

Power dissipated in the coil is

$P = i^{2} R = (1.25)^{2} (1.6) = 2.5 W$

Power is independent of the direction of current through the coil. Therefore, power $(P)$ versus time $(t)$ graph for first two cycles will be as under :
