The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the induced EMF in a coil with a given inductance when the current is half of its maximum value. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Inductance \( L = 10^{-2} \, \text{H} \) - Current \( I(t) = 2 \sin(100t) \, \text{A} \) ### Step 2: Determine the maximum current The maximum current \( I_0 \) can be identified from the equation: \[ I_0 = 2 \, \text{A} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the current when it is half of its maximum value Half of the maximum current is: \[ I = \frac{I_0}{2} = \frac{2}{2} = 1 \, \text{A} \] ### Step 4: Set up the equation for current We need to find the time \( t_1 \) when the current is \( 1 \, \text{A} \): \[ I(t_1) = 2 \sin(100 t_1) \] Setting this equal to \( 1 \, \text{A} \): \[ 1 = 2 \sin(100 t_1) \] Dividing both sides by 2: \[ \sin(100 t_1) = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( t_1 \) The sine function equals \( \frac{1}{2} \) at \( 30^\circ \) (or \( \frac{\pi}{6} \) radians): \[ 100 t_1 = 30^\circ \] Converting degrees to radians: \[ 100 t_1 = \frac{\pi}{6} \] Thus: \[ t_1 = \frac{\pi}{600} \, \text{s} \] ### Step 6: Find the induced EMF The formula for the induced EMF \( \mathcal{E} \) in an inductor is given by: \[ \mathcal{E} = -L \frac{dI}{dt} \] ### Step 7: Calculate the derivative of the current First, we need to differentiate the current \( I(t) \): \[ I(t) = 2 \sin(100t) \] Thus: \[ \frac{dI}{dt} = 2 \cdot 100 \cos(100t) = 200 \cos(100t) \] ### Step 8: Substitute \( t_1 \) into the derivative Now, we substitute \( t_1 = \frac{\pi}{600} \) into the derivative: \[ \frac{dI}{dt} \bigg|_{t = t_1} = 200 \cos(100 \cdot \frac{\pi}{600}) \] Calculating \( 100 \cdot \frac{\pi}{600} = \frac{\pi}{6} \): \[ \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] Thus: \[ \frac{dI}{dt} \bigg|_{t = t_1} = 200 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 100\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 9: Calculate the induced EMF Now substituting back into the EMF equation: \[ \mathcal{E} = -L \frac{dI}{dt} \] Substituting \( L = 10^{-2} \, \text{H} \): \[ \mathcal{E} = -10^{-2} \cdot 100\sqrt{3} \] \[ \mathcal{E} = -\sqrt{3} \, \text{V} \] ### Final Answer The induced EMF in the coil when the current is half of its maximum value is: \[ \mathcal{E} = -\sqrt{3} \, \text{V} \] ---
