JEE Advance - Physics (2016 - Paper 2 Offline - No. 11)

A rigid wire loop of square shape having side of length L and resistance R is moving along the X-axis with a constant velocity v0 in the plane of the paper. At t = 0, the right edge of the loop enters a region of length 3L where there is a uniform magnetic field B0 into the plane of the paper, as shown in the figure. For sufficiently large v0, the loop eventually crosses the region. Let x be the location of the right edge of the loop. Let v(x), I(x) and F(x) represent the velocity of the loop, current in the loop, and force on the loop, respectively, as a function of x. Counter-clockwise current is taken as positive.

Explanation

We discuss the following cases :

$$\bullet$$ For x = 0 $$\to$$ L : The induced emf in the loop is

$$\varepsilon = v{B_0}L$$

Therefore, the induced current is

$$I = {{v{B_0}L} \over R}$$ ........ (1)

As the flux is increasing, the current passes in counterclockwise direction and oppose the existing magnetic field (i.e., Lenz's law).

Let us consider the loop which is labelled as shown in the following figure:

JEE Advanced 2016 Paper 2 Offline Physics - Electromagnetic Induction Question 10 English Explanation 1

Force on the side CD of the loop is

$$\overrightarrow F = i(\overrightarrow L \times \overrightarrow B ) = {{v{B_0}L} \over R}[L\widehat j \times {B_0}( - \widehat k)]$$

$$\overrightarrow F = - {{vB_0^2{L^2}} \over R}\widehat i$$ (towards left) ........ (2)

$$ \Rightarrow {{mdv} \over {dt}} = - {{B_0^2{L^2}} \over R}v$$

$$ \Rightarrow {{mdv} \over {dx}}.{{dx} \over {dt}} = - {{ - B_0^2{L^2}} \over R}v$$

$$ \Rightarrow \int\limits_{{v_0}}^v {dv = - {{B_0^2{L^2}} \over {mR}}\int\limits_0^x {dx} } $$ (Since $${{dx} \over {dt}} = v$$)

$$ \Rightarrow v = {v_0} - {{B_0^2{L^2}} \over {mR}}x$$ ....... (3)

From Eqs. (1) and (3), we get

$$I = {{{v_0}{B_0}L} \over R} - {{B_0^3{L^3}} \over {m{R^2}}}x$$ ....... (4)

From Eqs. (2) and (3), we get

$$\overrightarrow F = - {{{v_0}B_0^2{L^2}} \over R} + {{B_0^4{L^4}} \over {m{R^2}}}x$$

$$\bullet$$ For x = L $$\to$$ 3L: Here, there is no change in flux and hence there is no induced current and thereby there is no force and no change in velocity.

$$\bullet$$ For x = 3L $$\to$$ 4L :

As the flux is decreasing, the current passes in clockwise direction and supports the existing magnetic field (i.e., Lenz's law).

Hence, option (A) is incorrect.

Consequently, the magnetic force experienced by the arm AB of the loop is

$$\overrightarrow F = i(\overrightarrow L \times \overrightarrow B ) = {{v{B_0}L} \over R}[L\widehat j \times {B_0}( - \widehat k)]$$

$$ = - {{vB_0^2{L^2}} \over R}\widehat i$$ (towards left)

Hence, option (B) is incorrect.

Similarly, now we have

$$\int\limits_{{v_{3L}}}^v {dv = - {{B_0^2{L^2}} \over {mR}}\int\limits_{3L}^x {dx \Rightarrow v = {v_{3L}} - {{B_0^2{L^2}} \over {mR}}\left( {x - 3L} \right)} } $$

When the loop is completely within the magnetic field, the force and current is zero and velocity is constant. However, while coming out, the current passes in clockwise direction, the force exists in backwards and the velocity decreases linearly.
