Lenz's Law, Eddy Currents & Induced Electric Field

As a result of change in the magnetic flux linked to the closed loop as shown in the figure, an e.m.f. VV volt is induced in the loop. The work done (joule) in taking a charge Q coulomb once along the loop is

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Emf is the work done per unit charge in taking it once round the loop: ε=WQ\varepsilon = \frac{W}{Q}.
  2. W=Qε=QVW = Q\varepsilon = QV (the induced electric field is non-conservative, so the round-trip work is not zero).
  3. So the answer is (a) QVQV.
