Problem

A flat coil of 200 turns and mean area 50 cm250\,\text{cm}^2 is placed with its plane normal to a uniform magnetic field. The field is increased uniformly from 0.20 T0.20\,\text{T} to 0.80 T0.80\,\text{T} in 0.020 s0.020\,\text{s}. The resistance of the coil is 5 Ω5\,\Omega. (i) Calculate the magnitude of the average emf induced in the coil during this time interval. (ii) Find the average current that flows in the coil. (iii) Determine the total charge that passes through any cross-section of the coil in this interval.
