The direction of the induced current in the loop at each instant.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Write the expression to calculate the magnetic flux.

  ϕ=BScosθ=BScosωt

Here, ϕ is the magnetic flux, B is the magnetic field, S is the surface area, θ is the angle, ω is the angular speed and t is the time.

Write the expression to calculate induced emf.

  e=dϕdt

Here, e is the emf.

Case 1:

Consider time 1.

Calculate the magnetic flux.

  ϕ=BScos90°=BS(0)=0

The magnetic flux will decrease as the angle reaches to 90° .

Calculate the induced emf.

  e=dϕdt=d( BScos( ωt ))dt=BSωsin(ωt)

The emf will increase which leads to the increase of current. The coil will produce a magnetic field in the same direction. According to Lenz’s law the direction of current will be anticlockwise when seen from the left side of the loop.

Case 2:

Calculate the magnetic flux.

  ϕ=BScos0°=BS(1)=BS

The magnetic flux will decrease as the angle reaches to 90° .

Calculate the induced emf.

  e=dϕdt=d( BScosθ)dt=0

The emf is zero.

Calculate the current.

  I=eR=0R=0

For the time 2, the emf induced will be zero which will lead to zero current in the loop.

Conclusion:

Therefore, for time 1 the current will be in anticlockwise direction and for time 2 the current is zero.

Three slits, each separated from its neighbor by d = 0.06 mm, are illuminated by a coherent light source of wavelength 550 nm. The slits are extremely narrow. A screen is located L = 2.5 m from the slits. The intensity on the centerline is 0.05 W. Consider a location on the screen x = 1.72 cm from the centerline. a) Draw the phasors, according to the phasor model for the addition of harmonic waves, appropriate for this location. b) From the phasor diagram, calculate the intensity of light at this location.
A Jamin interferometer is a device for measuring or for comparing the indices of refraction of gases. A beam of monochromatic light is split into two parts, each of which is directed along the axis of a separate cylindrical tube before being recombined into a single beam that is viewed through a telescope. Suppose we are given the following, • Length of each tube is L = 0.4 m. • λ= 598 nm. Both tubes are initially evacuated, and constructive interference is observed in the center of the field of view. As air is slowly let into one of the tubes, the central field of view changes dark and back to bright a total of 198 times. (a) What is the index of refraction for air? (b) If the fringes can be counted to ±0.25 fringe, where one fringe is equivalent to one complete cycle of intensity variation at the center of the field of view, to what accuracy can the index of refraction of air be determined by this experiment?
