It is desired to measure the magnitude of field between the poles of a powerful loud speaker magnet. A small flat search coil of area 2 cm2 with 25 closely wound turns, is positioned normal to the field direction, and then quickly snatched out of the field region.

Equivalently, one can give it a quick 90° turn to bring its plane parallel to the field direction). The total charge flown in the coil (measured by a ballistic galvanometer connected to coil) is 7.5 mC. The combined resistance of the coil and the galvanometer is 0.50. Estimate the field strength of magnet.

Given: Area of small flat search coil = 2 cm2

Total number of turns in the coil n = 25


Total charge measured by the ballistic galvanometer = 7.5 mC=7.5 ×10-3C


combined resistance of the coil and the galvanometer R= 0.50


The current induced in the coil can be calculated as follows:


i = e/R


also,


substituting in the equation we get



…………..(i)


Initial flux through the coil, Ф1 = AB


Final flux through the coil, Ф2= 0


Integrating equation (i) on both sides, we get



Total charge


Therefore,



Q = (NBA)/R


Therefore, B = (QR)/NA


So, substituting all the values in above equation, We get



On solving, we get


B = 0.75 T
