Correct Answer :

Option A

108

Solution :

The correct option is 108.

Let us derive the relation for the power dissipated in a coil placed in a time-varying magnetic field step-by-step.

1. Resistance of the coil (Re):
The electrical resistance of the wire forming the coil depends on its resistivity (ρ), its total length (l), and its cross-sectional area (A).
The total length of the wire for a coil of radius R with N turns is given by:
l=N(2πR)
Thus, the resistance is:
Re=ρlA=ρ2πRNA

2. Induced electromotive force (EMF) (V):
According to Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction, the induced EMF (V) is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux (Φ) through the coil:
V=-dΦdt
The magnetic flux through a coil with N turns, each of loop area Aloop=πR2, in a magnetic field B is:
Φ=NB(πR2)
Therefore, the induced EMF is:
V=-NπR2dBdt

3. Power dissipated (P):
The power dissipated in the coil is given by:
P=V2Re
Substituting the expressions for V and Re into this equation:
P=NπR2dBdt2ρ2πRNA
Simplifying the expression:
P=N2π2R4dBdt2A2πρRN
P=πdBdt22ρ(NR3A)
Since the time-varying magnetic field and resistivity remain the same, we have the proportionality:
PNR3A

4. Calculating the ratio (α):
For the first coil:
PNR3A
For the second coil, the parameters are modified as follows:
Number of turns N'=2N
Radius of coil R'=3R
Cross-sectional area of wire A'=2A
Let P'=αP be the new power dissipated:
P'N'(R')3A'
Substitute the values of the new parameters:
P'(2N)(3R)3(2A)
P'2272(NR3A)
P'108(NR3A)
Therefore:
P'=108P
Comparing this with P'=αP, we find:
α=108
