+ | The induced voltage in this problem was a constant, which means the flux must be changing linearly with time. Thats the only way the derivative can be a constant. If we look at the equation for flux through a loop there are three ways it can change. The first is if the magnetic field changes, the second is if the cross product changes, and the third is if the area changes with time. None of the sides of our loop are moving, so the area is not changing with time. The relationship of our magnetic field and area vector are also not changing as our loop is not rotating and our magnetic field is always in the same direction. This leaves the magnetic field, which is changing in this example. The magnetic field in this problem changes just like the current in the long wire. Since the current in the long wire changes linearly with time, we should expect the induced voltage to be constant as our solution shows. |
