Question
The drawing shows a coil of copper wire that
consists of two semicircles joined by straight
sections of wire. In part a the coil is lying flat on a
horizontal surface. The dashed line also lies in the
plane of the horizontal surface. Starting from the
orientation in part a, the smaller semicircle rotates
at an angular frequency w about the dashed line,
until its plane becomes perpendicular to the
horizontal surface, as shown in part b. A uniform
magnetic field is constant in time and is directed
upward, perpendicular to the horizontal surface. The
field completely fills the region occupied by the coil
in either part of the drawing. The magnitude of the
magnetic field is 0.38 T. The resistance of the coil is
0.025 02, and the smaller semicircle has a radius of
0.20 m. The angular frequency at which the small
semicircle rotates is 1.4 rad/s. Determine the
average current I, if any, induced in the coil as the coil
changes shape from that in part a of the drawing to
that in part b. Be sure to include an explicit plus or
minus sign along with your answer. Assume the
counterclockwise around the larger semicircular
wire direction of current (as seen from above)
positive.
