Faraday's Law MCQs

Practice Faraday's Law MCQs with four options, answers and explanations for focused Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering revision.

Question 1
Electromagnetic TheoryFaraday's Law

Faraday’s law states that the induced emf around a closed path is equal to?

  • AThe negative time rate of change of magnetic flux linkage
  • BThe magnetic flux itself
  • CThe electric charge enclosed
  • DThe resistance multiplied by magnetic field
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. The negative time rate of change of magnetic flux linkage
Explanation: Faraday's law gives induced emf as the negative time derivative of magnetic flux linkage.
Reference: Standard electromagnetic theory: faraday's law
Question 2
Electromagnetic TheoryFaraday's Law

The negative sign in Faraday’s law is associated with?

  • ALenz's law
  • BCoulomb's law
  • CGauss's electric law
  • DOhm's law
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. Lenz's law
Explanation: The negative sign expresses Lenz's law: the induced effect opposes the change in magnetic flux that produces it.

Question 4
Electromagnetic TheoryFaraday's Law

A stationary closed conducting loop is placed in a magnetic field that is constant with time. If the flux through the loop does not change, the transformer-induced emf is?

  • AZero
  • BMaximum
  • CEqual to magnetic flux
  • DAlways 1 V
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. Zero
Explanation: Faraday's law requires a time-varying flux linkage for transformer emf; if flux is constant, induced emf is zero.
