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 12
A rectangular loop of wire is pulled with constant velocity out of a region of uniform magnetic field. What happens to the induced current in the loop as it leaves the field?
Define self-induction.
Describe the working principle of an electric generator based on electromagnetic induction.
Explain the difference between self-induction and mutual induction.
A coil of 200 turns is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 0.5 T. If the area of the coil is 0.02 m2 and the plane of the coil is perpendicular to the field, calculate the magnetic flux linked with the coil.
A metal rod of length 1 m moves with a velocity of 10 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field of 0.2 T. What is the induced emf across the ends of the rod?
A rectangular loop of wire is pulled with constant velocity out of a region of uniform magnetic field. What happens to the induced current in the loop as it leaves the field?
