All questions with answers
  1. Faraday's law says the induced emf is proportional to the:

    • 1 Magnetic flux
    • 2 Rate of change of magnetic flux
    • 3 Area only
    • 4 Resistance
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Rate of change of magnetic flux

    emf = -d(flux)/dt.

  2. Lenz's law is a consequence of conservation of:

    • 1 Momentum only
    • 2 Energy
    • 3 Charge
    • 4 Mass
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Energy

    The induced current opposes the change causing it, which conserves energy.

  3. A coil has 100 turns and the flux through each turn changes by 0.02 Wb in 0.1 s. The average emf is:

    • 1 0.2 V
    • 2 200 V
    • 3 2 V
    • 4 20 V
    Show answer

    Correct answer: 20 V

    emf = N x change in flux / time = 100 x 0.02 / 0.1 = 20 V.

  5. Energy stored in an inductor L carrying current I is:

    • 1 L I²
    • 2 1/2 L I
    • 3 1/2 L I²
    • 4 L I
    Show answer

    Correct answer: 1/2 L I²

    U = 1/2 L I².

  6. Self induction depends on the:

    • 1 Voltage only
    • 2 Colour of the wire
    • 3 Shape and number of turns of the coil
    • 4 Temperature only
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Shape and number of turns of the coil

    L depends on geometry and the core.

  7. A generator produces an emf by:

    • 1 Heating a wire
    • 2 Reflecting light
    • 3 Rotating a coil in a magnetic field
    • 4 Charging a capacitor
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Rotating a coil in a magnetic field

    The flux through the coil changes.

  8. The unit of mutual inductance is the:

    • 1 Tesla
    • 2 Henry
    • 3 Ohm
    • 4 Farad
    Show answer

    Correct answer: Henry

    It is measured in henries.
