Electromagnetic Induction starts at 10 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Electromagnetic Induction. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 10
A bar magnet is moved rapidly into a coil. The induced current is larger than when it is moved slowly. Explain why.
A magnet is dropped through a coil connected to a sensitive galvanometer. The galvanometer shows a deflection as the magnet falls. Explain why.
A rectangular loop is moved with velocity v perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B. What is the expression for the induced emf if the length of the side in the field is l?
Describe one practical application of electromagnetic induction in daily life.
A bar magnet is moved rapidly into a coil. The induced current is larger than when it is moved slowly. Explain why.
A coil of 200 turns encloses an area of 0.01 m². It is placed perpendicular to a magnetic field of 0.5 T. If the field is reduced to zero in 0.2 s, what is the average induced emf?

A transformer works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Yes or No?
If the direction of motion of a conductor in a magnetic field is reversed, the direction of induced current will also reverse. True or False?
If the magnetic field through a coil is constant, will there be any induced emf?
True or False: A current is induced in a closed loop only when the magnetic flux through the loop changes.
