Marks: +1, -0
(a) Obtain an expression for mutual inductance between a long straight wire and a square loop of side ‘a’ as shown in figure.
(b) Now assume that straight wire carries a current of 50 A and the loop is moved to the right with a constant velocity, v = 10 m s1s^{-1}.
Calculate the induced emf in the loop at the instant when x = 0.2 m.
Take a = 0.1m and assume that loop has a large resistance.
Solution:  
(a) As the magnetic field will be variable with distance from long straight wire, so the flux through square loop can be calculated by integration.
Let us assume a width ‘dr’ of the square loop at a distance ‘r’ from straight wire
B = μ04π2Ir\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{2I}{r} or ϕ = B . Adr = μ04π2Ir\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{2I}{r} adr
As ϕ = MI ⇒ MI = μ0Ia2πloge\frac{\mu_0 I a}{2\pi} \log_e (1 + a/x)
M = μ0a2πloge\frac{\mu_0 a}{2\pi} \log_e (1 + a/x)
Total flux associated with square loop
ϕ = ∫ dϕ = μ04π2Iaxx+adrr\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} 2I a \int\limits_{x}^{x+a} \frac{dr}{r} or ϕ = μ04π\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} 2Ia [loger]xx+a\left[ \log_e r \right]_{x}^{x+a}
ϕ = μ04π2Ia[logex+ax]\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} 2I a \left[ \log_e \frac{x+a}{x} \right] or ϕ = μ0Ia2πloge\frac{\mu_0 I a}{2\pi} \log_e (1 + a/x)
(b) The square loop is moving right with a constant speed v, the instantaneous flux can be taken as
ϕ = μ0Ia2πloge\frac{\mu_0 I a}{2\pi} \log_e (1 + a/x)
Induced emf, ε = – dϕdt\frac{d\phi}{dt} = - dϕdxdxdt\frac{d\phi}{dx} \frac{dx}{dt} = - v dϕdx\frac{d\phi}{dx}
ε = - μ0Iav2πd(loge(1+a/x))dx\frac{\mu_0 I a v}{2\pi} \frac{d(\log_e(1+a/x))}{dx} ⇒ ε = μ0Iav2π11+a/x[ax2]-\frac{\mu_0 I a v}{2\pi} \frac{1}{1+a/x} \left[ -\frac{a}{x^2} \right]
or ε = μ02πa2vx(x+a)\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi} \frac{a^2 v}{x(x+a)} I or ε = 2 × 10710^{-7} [0.1]2×10×500.2[0.2+0.1]\frac{[0.1]^2 \times 10 \times 50}{0.2[0.2+0.1]} = 1.67 × 10510^{-5} V
