A circular coil of 185 turns and radius 4.50 cm is placed inside and coaxial to a solenoid with 350 turns/m. If the current in the solenoid is represented by the equation I = a(1 − e−bt) where a = 12.5 A and b = 2.10 s−1, determine the magnitude of the induced emf in the coil when t = 1.50 s.

Magnitude of the induced emf is 11.62 V

Explanation:

Given:

No. of turns of the circular coil, N=185

Radius, R=4.50 cm=0.045 m

No. of turns of solenoid per meter(m), n=350

a=12.5 A

b=2.10

Now,

To determine the emf induced in the coil at t = 1.50 s:

The given equation is:

Now,

Now, substituting the respective values:

Now,

where,

A=Area=

Thus,

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it
