A long solenoid of diameter 0.1 m has 2×104 turns per meter. At the centre of the solenoid, a coil of 100 turns and radius 0.01 m is placed with its axis coinciding with the solenoid axis. The current in the solenoid reduces at a constant rate to 0 A from 4 A in 0.05 s. If the resistance of the coil is 10π2 Ω, the total charge flowing through the coil during this time is
  1. 32π μC
  2. 16 μC
  3. 32 μC
  4. 16π μC

Solution

In the given case, the solenoid produces a changing magnetic field. This field is linked with the coil inside and hence, there is an induced emf in the coil.

We have, from the laws of EMI:

ε= -Ndϕdt
εR=NRdϕdt

The ratio given above is the induced current in the circuit which can further be written as the rate of flow of charge per unit time.
dq=NRdϕ
ΔQ=NΔϕR
ΔQ=ΔϕtotalR
=NBAR
= N μ 0 niπ r 2 R
Putting values
=100×4π×107×2×104×4×π×(0.01)210π2
ΔQ=32 μC
