Study Notes
Electromagnetic Induction
-
Magnetic Flux: The product of the magnetic field strength (B) and the area (A) of a surface perpendicular to the field. Measured in webers (Wb). Formula: Φ = B⋅A
-
Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction (First Law): A changing magnetic flux through a circuit sets up an induced electromotive force (emf) whose magnitude is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux.
Formula: ε = -ΔΦ/Δt
-
Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction (Second Law): The direction of the induced current is such that it opposes the change producing it (Lenz's Law).
-
Induced Current: If the circuit is closed, the induced emf will drive an induced current through the circuit.
Formula: I = ε/R (where R is total resistance)
Motional EMF
- A moving conductor in a magnetic field experiences a motional EMF.
Formula: ε = Bvl
- Where B is the magnetic field, v is the velocity of the conductor, and l is the length of the conductor in the field
Self-Induction
-
Self-Induction: The phenomenon of electromagnetic induction in a coil in which a changing current in the coil itself induces an opposing self-induced emf.
-
Coefficient of Self-Induction (Inductance): A property of a coil that measures the opposition it offers to changes in the current flowing through it. Represented by the symbol L. Measured in henries (H).
Formula: L = NΦ/I
Mutual Induction
-
Mutual Induction: The phenomenon of inducing an emf in one coil due to a change in current flowing in a nearby coil.
-
Coefficient of Mutual Induction (M): A measure of the degree to which two coils interact magnetically. Measured in henries (H).
Eddy Currents
-
Eddy Currents: Induced currents that circulate within a conductor in response to a changing magnetic field.
-
Disadvantages: Eddy currents generate heat, leading to energy loss and overheating.
-
Methods to Reduce Eddy Currents: Using laminated materials (thin layers insulated) or creating holes/slits to reduce the area available for eddy current flow. This limits current paths.
