To monitor the breathing of a hospital patient, a thin belt is girded around the patient's chest as in the figure below. The belt is a 155-turn coil. When the patient inhales, the area encircled by the coil increases by 40.0 cm². The magnitude of Earth's magnetic field is 50.0 μT and makes an angle of 25.0° with the plane of the coil. Assuming a patient takes 2.00 s to inhale, find the magnitude of the average induced emf in the coil during that time. μV Coil
Two coils have the same number of circular turns and carry the same current. Each rotates in a magnetic field acting perpendicularly to its axis of rotation.
