Question

If a coil of metal wire is kept stationary in a uniform magnetic field, then _______.

A
both current and e.m.f. are induced
B
neither e.m.f. nor current is induced
C
an e.m.f. is induced in the coil
D
a current is induced in the coil
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is C. neither e.m.f. nor current is induced
If the coil is kept stationary in the uniform magnetic field, there will be no change in the magnetic flux linked with the coil. Therefore, there will be no induced emf in coil.
Since, there is no induced emf, there will be no induced current also in the coil.
Option (C) is correct.
