Question

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive technique used to stimulate regions of the human brain. A small coil is placed on the scalp, and a brief burst of current in the coil produces a rapidly changing magnetic field inside the brain. The induced emf can be sufficient to stimulate neuronal activity. One such device generates a magnetic field within the brain that rises from 0 to 1.5T in 120ms. Determine the induced emf within a circle of tissue of radius of 1.6mm and that is perpendicular to the direction of the field. Show work please.

Explanation / Answer

Induced emf = -d?/dt = BA/?t = B?R
