A long piece of thin wire is looped into a circle of radius 0.51 m and the loop rests flat on a table top. A uniform magnetic field of 4.44 T points exactly vertical out of the table top. We take the ends of the wire and pull them in opposite directions such that the circular shape of the loop is maintained, but the loop's area is rapidly reduced to zero in a period of 0.572 s. (In other words, we aren't pulling the wire ends apart to open the loop, we'll pulling them past one another in opposite directions, maintaining the loop while we pull the ends of the wire.) What is the EMF induced in the loop while we are pulling on the ends?

Question

A long piece of thin wire is looped into a circle of radius 0.51 m and the loop rests flat on a table top. A uniform magnetic field of 4.44 T points exactly vertical out of the table top. We take the ends of the wire and pull them in opposite directions such that the circular shape of the loop is maintained, but the loop's area is rapidly reduced to zero in a period of 0.572 s. (In other words, we aren't pulling the wire ends apart to open the loop, we'll pulling them past one another in opposite directions, maintaining the loop while we pull the ends of the wire.)

What is the EMF induced in the loop while we are pulling on the ends?
