A square loop of side length $L$ and resistance $R$ is placed in a time-varying magnetic field $B = B_0 \sin(\omega t)$ directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop. What is the maximum power dissipated in the loop?

  1. A.$\frac{B_0^2 \omega^2 L^4}{2R}$
  2. B.$\frac{B_0^2 \omega^2 L^4}{R}$
  3. C.$\frac{B_0^2 \omega^2 L^2}{2R}$
  4. D.$\frac{B_0^2 \omega L^4}{2R}$
Show correct answer & step-by-step solution

Correct answer: A$\frac{B_0^2 \omega^2 L^4}{2R}$

Solution

The induced emf is given by Faraday's law as . Calculating the derivative of the flux gives , and the power is , which has a maximum value when .
