Worked practice questions

Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction (in its quantitative form, with sign) is:

  1. $e = \phi / t$
  2. $e = \phi \cdot dt$
  3. $e = -d\phi/dt$
  4. $e = +d\phi/dt$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. $e = -d\phi/dt$

The induced EMF equals the **negative** rate of change of magnetic flux through the circuit: $e = -d\phi/dt$. The minus sign embeds Lenz's law — direction of induced EMF opposes the flux change.

Lenz's law is a manifestation of which fundamental conservation principle?

  1. Conservation of energy
  2. Conservation of mass
  3. Conservation of momentum
  4. Conservation of charge
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Conservation of energy

If induced current aided the flux change, it would self-sustain and grow indefinitely — producing energy from nothing. **So the opposing direction is forced by energy conservation.**

The motional EMF induced in a conductor of length $\ell$ moving with velocity $v$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field $B$ is:

  1. $Bv/\ell$
  2. $B\ell v$
  3. $B/(\ell v)$
  4. $B\ell/v$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. $B\ell v$

When a straight conductor of length $\ell$ moves perpendicular to $B$ with speed $v$, the rate of flux change is $B\ell v$, so $|e| = B\ell v$.
