    Study Notes

    Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction

    • Relative motion between a magnet and a coil is not necessary for inducing electromotive force (emf).
    • Faraday demonstrated that a stationary coil (C1) can exhibit induced emf when connected to a galvanometer, while a second stationary coil (C2) is powered by a battery.
    • When the circuit key (K) is pressed, a momentary deflection is observed in the galvanometer, indicating induced current.
    • Holding the key causes the galvanometer to return to zero, and releasing it creates deflection in the opposite direction.

    Faraday's Law Equation

    • The induced emf (ε) is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux (ΦB) through a circuit:
      • ( ε = - \frac{dΦB}{dt} )
    • The negative sign indicates that the induced current opposes the change in magnetic flux.

    Enhancing Induced emf

    • To achieve a larger deflection in experiments:
      • Insert a soft iron rod inside coil C2.
      • Use a more powerful battery.
      • Increase the speed of relative motion between coils.
    • Replacing the galvanometer with a small bulb can demonstrate induced current visually.

    Example Studies

    • Example 6.2: A square loop with resistance in a magnetic field experiences induced emf when the magnetic field decreases over time:
      • Initial magnetic flux can be calculated using the angle and magnitude of the magnetic field.
      • Results in an induced emf of 1.0 mV and current of 2 mA.
    • The Earth's magnetic field does not induce emf due to its steadiness.

    Lenz’s Law

    • Proposed by Heinrich Friedrich Lenz, which states:
      • The induced emf will create a current opposing the change in magnetic flux that produced it.
    • The negative sign in Faraday's equation reflects this opposition.

    Energy Conversion

    • Mechanical energy used to move a conductor in a magnetic field is transformed into electrical energy and then thermal energy, dissipated as Joule heat.
    • The relationship between charge flow (ΔQ), induced emf, and magnetic flux is established through Faraday's law.

    Additional Example

    • Example 6.8: While moving a rectangular conductor arm in and out of a uniform magnetic field:
      • Expressions for magnetic flux, induced emf, required force, and power dissipation as Joule heat can be derived based on the arm's distance moved and resistance characteristics.

    Key Concepts

    • Electromagnetic induction is a crucial principle in electricity generation and motor operation.
    • Observing the behavior of emf and current in circuits offers insights into electromagnetic properties and energy conversion processes.
