Answer

Relevant equations:

Write the expression for the flux using the given expression for the magnetic field strength:

Take the derivative of this flux to find the induced emf:

Determine the maximum value of , and replace with this value, to find the maximum induced emf:

Plug this maximum induced emf into , to find the maximum induced current:
