1a. Select the best answer and explain why each of the wrong answers are incorrect. Which of the following configurations would allow for a maximum induced current through a 1m segment of wire in the presence of a changing magnetic field?

(a) a single circular loop

(b) a single square loop

(c) a 5-turn circular loop

(d) a 5-turn square loop

 

2a. An electric generator utilizes the principle of magnetic induction to generate a DC current. To do this, a wire loop is rotated relative to a hard magnet so that the magnetic flux through the loop is constantly changing (see the diagram below). However, this process is slightly flawed to produce a constant DC current that always moves in the same direction. Explain why this is flawed.
