Assertion (A): When a coil is rotated in a uniform magnetic field about an axis perpendicular to the field, emf is induced in it which is maximum for the orientation of coil in which magnetic flux through the coil is zero.
Reason (R): In an electric generator, electrical energy is generated by rotating a coil in a magnetic field.
Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)
Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)
(A) is true but (R) is false
Both (A) and (R) are false
Solution:
Assertion (A) is true because \( \epsilon = BA\omega sin(\omega t) \), which is max when \( \Phi_B = BA cos(\omega t) = 0 \). Reason (R) is also true, describing generators. However, (R) is an application and doesn't explain the condition for maximum emf in (A).
