Question 10





Q10: Scientific work is currently under way to determine whether weak oscillating magnetic fields can affect human health. For example, one study found that driv- ers of trains had a higher incidence of blood cancer than other railway workers, possibly due to long expo- sure to mechanical devices in the train engine cab. Consider a magnetic field of magnitude T, oscillating sinusoidally at Hz. If the diameter of a red blood cell is mm, determine the maximum emf that can be generated around the perimeter of a cell in this field.
