29.48: a) Choose the area vector to point out of the page.

Since the area and its


orientation to the magnetic field are fixed, we can write the induced emf in the 10 cm
radius loop as
dΦB dB z dB z
ε =− = − Az = − π (0.10 m) 2 = 10 − 4 [( 20 .0 V) − (4.00 V s)t ]
dt dt dt
dBz
After solving for and integrating we obtain

Bz (t = 2.00 s) − Bz (t = 0 s) = −
π (0.10 m) 2 ∫0
[( 20 .0 V) - (4.00 V s)t ]dt .

Thus,

s) − (2.00 V s) (2.00 s) 2 = − 0.902 T

b) Repeat part (a) but set ε = −( 2.00 ×10 −3 V) + (4.00 ×10 −4 V s) t to obtain
B z = − 0.698 T
c) In part (a) the flux has decreased (i.e., it has become more negative) and in part (b)
the flux has increased. Both results agree with the expectations of Lenz’s law.
