    Question

    Suppose Rammohan has kept a cylindrical bar magnet along the axis of a circular solenoid. Now, he is rotating the magnet about the axis of the solenoid. The induced electric current in the coil will be:


    A.

    inversely proportional to the resistance of the solenoid


    B.

    zero


    C.

    proportional to the length of the solenoid


    D.

    proportional to the number of turns in the solenoid

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (B)  zero

    • When a cylindrical bar magnet is rotated about the axis of a circular solenoid, no electric current is induced in the solenoid.

    Information booster:

    • Principle of Electromagnetic Induction: According to Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction, an electric current is induced in a solenoid only when there is a change in the magnetic flux through it.
    • Magnetic Flux in This Case: The magnetic flux is the amount of magnetic field passing through the solenoid's cross-sectional area.
    • When the bar magnet is rotated about the solenoid's axis, the magnetic field through the solenoid's coils does not change. The rotation only changes the orientation of the magnet, but since it is aligned along the axis, there is no variation in the flux.
    • No Change in Flux: Without a change in magnetic flux, Faraday's Law states that no electromotive force (EMF) is induced. As a result, no current flows in the solenoid.
