A square loop of side 1 m and resistance $1\ \Omega$ is placed in a magnetic field of 0.5 T. If the plane of loop is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, the magnetic flux through the loop is :
A zero weber
B 2 weber
C 0.5 weber
D 1 weber

Detailed Solution

The plane of the loop is perpendicular to B, so the area vector is parallel to B (angle = 0). $\phi = BA\cos 0^\circ = 0.5 \times (1)^2 \times 1 = 0.5$ Wb
