Question: A 5 6 . 4 2 - cm - diameter wire loop lies flat in the plane of the page. The 1 6 - gauge

A 56.42-cm-diameter wire loop lies flat in the plane of the page. The 16-gauge copper wire used to make the loop has a diameter of 1.29 mm . The positive n-axis (n for 'normal') points out of the page and the center of the loop is at the origin. The magnetic field passing through the page is
vec(B)=[0.20(T)+(0.10(T)(s))t-(0.050(T)s2)t2]hat(n).
(a) Sketch a graph of the magnetic flux versus time through the loop for 0t4.0s.
(b) You are looking down on the loop from the +n-axis. Determine the magnitude and direction of the current in the loop at t=0.5s. The resistivity of copper is 1.7710-8*m.[Hint: You will need to review the relationship between resistivity and resistance.]
(c) Repeat part (c) for t=2.0s.
(d) Repeat part (c) for t=4.0s.[Extra Credit: Using the graph in part (a) and your results from (b)-(d), make a general statement about when the current changes direction.]
(e) Use Faraday's Law to determine the magnitude of the induced electric field in the loop at t=0.5 s .
