Question

The current (II) in the inductance is varying with time (tt) according to the plot shown in the figure. Which one of the following is the correct variation of voltage with time in the coil?

A

Option 1

B

Option 2

C

Option 3

D

Option 4

Step-by-Step Solution

The induced electromotive force (emf) or voltage (ε\varepsilon) across an inductor is proportional to the rate of change of current with respect to time. The relationship is given by the formula: ε=LdIdt\varepsilon = -L \frac{dI}{dt} Where LL is the self-inductance .

Analysis of the Graphs:

  1. Slope Relationship: The voltage graph corresponds to the negative derivative of the current graph (slope of I vs t-\text{slope of } I \text{ vs } t).
  2. Linear Change: If the current II changes linearly with time (constant slope), the induced voltage ε\varepsilon will be constant (a horizontal line). If II increases linearly (positive slope), dIdt\frac{dI}{dt} is positive, so ε\varepsilon is negative (constant). If II decreases linearly (negative slope), dIdt\frac{dI}{dt} is negative, so ε\varepsilon is positive (constant).
  3. Zero Change: If II is constant (zero slope), dIdt=0\frac{dI}{dt} = 0, and thus ε=0\varepsilon = 0.

Note: Without the specific visual of the ItI-t plot, the exact shape of the answer cannot be drawn, but it will follow these mathematical rules (e.g., a triangular current wave produces a square voltage wave).
