A long solenoid of diameter 0.1 m0.1 \text{ m} has 2×1042 \times 10^4 turns per meter. At the centre of the solenoid, a coil of 100 turns and radius 0.01 m0.01 \text{ m} is placed with its axis coinciding with the solenoid's axis. The current in the solenoid reduces at a constant rate to 0 A0 \text{ A} from 4 A4 \text{ A} in 0.05 s0.05 \text{ s}. If the resistance of the coil is 10π2Ω10\pi^2 \Omega, the total charge flowing through the coil during this time is:

A

32πμC32\pi \mu \text{C}

B

16μC16 \mu \text{C}

C

32μC32 \mu \text{C}

D

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Magnetic Field of Solenoid: The magnetic field inside a long solenoid is given by B=μ0nIB = \mu_0 n I, where nn is the number of turns per unit length .
  2. Magnetic Flux: The magnetic flux linked with the small coil placed at the center is Φ=NcoilBAcoil=Ncoil(μ0nI)(πr2)\Phi = N_{coil} B A_{coil} = N_{coil} (\mu_0 n I) (\pi r^2), where rr is the radius of the coil .
  3. Induced Charge: The induced current is Iind=1RdΦdtI_{ind} = \frac{1}{R} \frac{d\Phi}{dt}. The total charge QQ flowing through the circuit is obtained by integrating the current over time: Q=Iinddt=1RdΦdtdt=ΔΦRQ = \int I_{ind} dt = \int \frac{1}{R} \frac{d\Phi}{dt} dt = \frac{\Delta \Phi}{R}. Note that the time interval does not influence the total charge, only the total change in flux.
