A wire is bent into the shape of an planar Archimedean spiral which in polar coordinates is described by the equation r = b θ . The spiral has N = 1 0 0 turns and outer radius R = 1 0 cm ( R is the distance from point O to point T). Note that in the figure below we show a spiral having only 3 turns. The circuit is placed in a homogeneous magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the spiral. The time dependence of the magnetic field induction is given by B = B 0 cos ( ω t ) where B 0 = 1 μ T and ω = 2 × 1 0 6 s − 1 . Determine, the amplitude of the emf in Volts induced in the circuit.

Very nice use of an N large approximation!
Firstly, let's calculate the region's area A :
In polar coordinates: A = ∫ 2 r 2 d θ = ∫ 0 1 0 0 ∗ 2 π 2 b 2 θ 2 d θ = 6 b 2 ( 2 0 0 π ) 3 and since that r = 1 0 c m when θ = 2 0 0 π , then b = 2 0 0 π 0 . 1
So, the area is A = 6 ( 0 . 1 ) 2 ∗ 2 0 0 π = 1 . 0 4 7 1 9 7 5 5 1 2 m 2
Now, let's calculate the magnetic flux: ϕ = B ( t ) A
Using the Faraday's Law, we have the emf induced : ϵ = d t d ϕ
So, ϵ = − B o ω A s i n ( ω t ) . Therefore, the amplitude of the emf in Volts induced is ϵ m a x = B o ω A = 1 ∗ 1 0 − 6 ∗ 2 ∗ 1 0 6 ∗ 1 . 0 4 7 1 9 7 5 5 1 2 = 2 . 0 9 4 V
The induced emf by changing magnetic field is given by
ε = − N d t d ( Φ ) where Φ = B A ⊥ .
The area of the spiral is one-third of the circle enclosing it so that
A ⊥ = 3 π r 2 = 3 π ( 0 . 1 m ) 2 = 3 0 0 π m 2 .
Solving for ε ,
ε = − N d t d ( Φ ) = − N d t d ( B A ⊥ ) = − N B 0 A ⊥ d t d ( cos ( ω t ) )
ε = N B 0 A ⊥ ω sin ( ω t ) .
Substituting the given values, the amplitude of the induced emf is
ε m = ( 1 0 0 ) ( 1 × 1 0 − 6 μ T ) ( 3 0 0 π m 2 ) ( 2 × 1 0 6 s − 1 ) = 2 . 0 9 4 v o l t s .
My apologies. At the last part, it's supposed to be 1 × 1 0 − 6 T , not 1 × 1 0 − 6 μ T
From Faraday's Law, we have $$\mathcal{E}=-\frac{d\Phi}{dt}=-\frac{d}{dt}\left[BA\right].$$ We are given $$B=B 0 \cos{\left(\omega t\right)},$$ and we can calculate the total are inside the circuit by evaluating a polar integral of r = 2 π N R θ , which is the general form for an Archimedean spiral with outer radius R and N turns. $$A=\frac{1}{2}\int {0}^{2\pi N}\left({\frac{R}{2\pi N}\theta}\right)^2 \ d\theta=\frac{\pi}{3} N R^2$$ Substituting back into Faraday's Law gives $$\mathcal{E}=-\frac{d}{dt}\left[\frac{\pi}{3} N R^2 B_0 \cos{\left({\omega t}\right)}\right]$$
$$=\frac{\pi}{3} N R^2 B_0 \omega \sin{\left({\omega t}\right)}.$$
The amplitude a of this function is just the coefficient of the sine function.
$$a=\frac{\pi}{3} N R^2 B_0 \omega $$ $$=\frac{\pi}{3} \left(100\right) \left(0.10 \ \mathrm{m}\right)^2 \left(1 \times 10^{-6} \ \mathrm{T}\right) \left(2 \times 10^6 \mathrm{s^{-1}}\right) $$ $$= \frac{2\pi}{3} \ \mathrm{V} \approx \fbox{2.094 V}. $$
First we determine the b in the equation r = b θ . We note that because there is 100 spirals, that means that θ = 1 0 0 ( 2 π ) when r = 0 . 1 m . Thus we get the equation as r = 2 0 0 0 π 1 θ . The flux through the surface is given as \Phi_B = \iint\limits_A \bf{B}\, \dot\, \bf{dA} \ \ . We know that the magnetic field is parallel to the normal of the surface, and that B has no dependence on the area, so we can write the equation as Φ B = B A ∬ d A Doing the integral in polar coordinates, we have Φ B = B ∫ 0 2 0 0 π ∫ 0 b θ r d r d θ . Solving this, we end up with Φ B = 3 π B . Now to find the amplitude of the emf, we use Faraday's law of induction, E = − d t d Φ B . Since B = B 0 c o s ω t , we obtain E = 3 π B 0 ω s i n ω t . The amplitude of the emf would thus be 3 π B 0 ω = 2 . 0 9 V .
Let's find b . If N = 1 0 0 we'll have θ = 2 π ⋅ 1 0 0 . So: $$ r = b\theta \Rightarrow R = b\cdot 200\pi \Rightarrow b = \frac{1}{20\pi} $$ Calculating ϵ : $$ \phi = B\cdot A \Rightarrow \epsilon = -\frac{d\phi}{dt} = - A\cdot\frac{dB}{dt} $$ $$ \epsilon = AB 0\omega\sin(\omega t) $$ So, we observe that the amplitude of emf is A B 0 ω . Here we need to calculate the area of the spiral: $$ A = \int\int rdrd\theta = \int {\theta = 0}^{200\pi}\frac{r^2}{2}d\theta = \int {\theta = 0}^{200\pi}\frac{b^2\theta^2}{2}d\theta = \frac{b^2(200\pi)^3}{6} $$ Finally, applying the corresponding values: $$ \epsilon {max} = AB_0\omega = 2.094 $$
By Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction, ε = − N d t d Φ B . Since Φ B = B A and the area enclosed by an Archimedean spiral is 3 1 the area of the circle enclosing it, we have that ε = − N d t d ( B 0 c o s ( ω t ) 3 1 π r 2 ) . Therefore, we have that ε = N B 0 3 1 π r 2 ω s i n ( ω t ) , so the amplitude of the induced emf is N B 0 3 1 π r 2 ω . Substituting in our given values, we get that our answer is 1 0 0 ( 1 0 − 6 ) ( 3 1 ) ( π ) ( 0 . 1 ) 2 ( 2 ∗ 1 0 6 ) ≈ 2 . 0 9 4
According to Maxwell's equations, we can calculate the EMF as E = d t d ∮ B d S . As the induction of the magnetic field is constant over space (i.e. ∇ B = 0 ), we can take it outside of the integral. Also note, that since the spiral is flat, d S is always parallel to B , allowing us to substitute B d S for B d S .
The area enclosed by the spiral can be calculated as S = 2 1 ∫ 0 2 π × 9 9 . 7 5 b 2 ϑ 2 d ϑ = 2 b 2 3 ( 2 π × 9 9 . 7 5 ) 3 , where we took into account that actually (according to the figure) the spiral makes a quarter of a turn less than stated.
b can be calculated from the equation for a spiral, substituting r = 0 . 1 m and ϑ = 2 π × 9 9 . 7 5 . So, b = 1 9 9 5 π 1 . Combining everything we have got thus far, E a m p = B 0 S ω = 1 0 − 6 × 4 0 0 1 3 3 π × 2 × 1 0 6 = 2 . 0 8 9 ( V ) .
The Maxwell-Faraday relationship governs the behavior of yet another closed wire in a field!

Instead of a simple circle or square, we have the spiral of Archimedes which has a series of overlapping elements, each subsequent turn of the spiral containing the area of the turn which precedes it. The field is uniform, so the flux is given by
ϕ B = A e f f B ⋅ k ^
where A e f f is the effective area of the entire spiral.
We can calculate the total effective area by integrating the radius around the N turns. This is given by
A e f f = 0 ∫ b θ 0 ∫ 2 0 0 π r d r d θ = 3 4 b 2 N 3 π 3
We know that r = b θ and we also know that the radius at 100 turns ( θ = 2 0 0 π ) is 0.1 cm , thus b = 2 0 0 0 π 1 .
Plugging this all in, we find A e f f = 3 π .
Therefore, ϕ B = 3 π B 0 cos ω t making the magnitude of d t d ϕ B equal to 3 π B 0 ω = 3 2 π ≈ 2 . 0 9 4 .

Because the number of turns is big, we suppose each turn is nearly a circle.
The emf induced in the circuit is: E = − d t d Φ = − d t d B Σ S , where Σ S is the total area of all circles.
Because the number of circles is big, we can calculate Σ S by calculate the average area of all circles: S a v e r a g e = 0 ∫ R R π r 2 d r = 3 π R 2 .
Therefore, Σ S = N S a v e r a g e = 3 N π R 2 .
So E = ω B 0 sin ( ω t ) 3 N π R 2 .
The amplitude of E is 3 1 π R 2 N ω B 0 = 2 . 0 9 4 V .
