Slide 1: Electromagnetic Induction - Magnet moving toward or away from the coil
- When a magnet moves towards a coil, or away from it, there is a change in the magnetic field near the coil.
- This change in the magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the coil.
- The induced EMF leads to the flow of an electric current in the coil.
- This phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction.
- It was first discovered by Michael Faraday in the early 19th century.
Slide 2: Faraday’s Law
- Faraday’s Law states that the magnitude of the induced EMF in a coil is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux passing through the coil.
- The magnetic flux (Φ) is defined as the product of the magnetic field strength (B) and the area (A) perpendicular to the magnetic field.
- Mathematically, Faraday’s Law can be expressed as: EMF = -N * dΦ/dt, where EMF is the induced electromotive force, N is the number of turns in the coil, and dΦ/dt represents the rate of change of magnetic flux.
- The negative sign indicates that the induced EMF opposes the change in magnetic flux.
- The unit of EMF is volts (V).
Slide 3: Lenz’s Law
- Lenz’s Law states that the direction of the induced current in a circuit is such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that induced it.
- This law is a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy.
- Lenz’s Law helps in determining the direction of induced currents in various electromagnetic induction scenarios.
- It provides a basis for understanding the behavior of induced currents in circuits.
- Lenz’s Law is named after the Russian physicist Heinrich Lenz, who formulated it in 1834.
Slide 4: Magnetic Flux
- Magnetic flux (Φ) is a measure of the total magnetic field passing through a specific area.
- It depends on the strength of the magnetic field (B) and the perpendicular area (A) through which the magnetic field passes.
- Mathematically, magnetic flux is given by the equation: Φ = B * A * cos(θ), where θ is the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the area.
- The SI unit of magnetic flux is Weber (Wb).
- An increase in magnetic flux induces a current in a nearby circuit, while a decrease in magnetic flux induces an EMF in the opposite direction.
Slide 5: Induced EMF in a Moving Magnet
- When a magnet moves towards a coil, the magnetic field passing through the coil increases.
- This increase in magnetic field leads to an increase in magnetic flux.
- According to Faraday’s Law, the rate of change of magnetic flux induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the coil.
- The induced EMF causes the flow of an electric current in the coil.
- This current creates a magnetic field that opposes the motion of the magnet.
Slide 6: Induced EMF in a Moving Coil
- Similar to a moving magnet, when a coil moves towards a stationary magnet, the magnetic field passing through the coil increases.
- This increase in magnetic field induces an EMF in the coil according to Faraday’s Law.
- The induced EMF produces an electric current in the coil.
- The current flowing through the coil generates a magnetic field that opposes the motion of the coil.
- This phenomenon is the basis of electric generators.
Slide 7: Electromagnetic Induction Applications
- Electromagnetic induction is the underlying principle behind several important applications in our daily lives.
- It is utilized in electric power generation through the use of generators.
- Induction cooktops use electromagnetic induction to heat up the cooking vessel.
- Transformers use electromagnetic induction to transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another.
- Induction-based wireless charging is used for charging smartphones and other electronic devices.
Slide 8: Eddy Currents
- When a magnet moves towards or away from a conducting material, such as a metal, eddy currents are induced in the material.
- Eddy currents are swirling currents that circulate within the conducting material.
- These currents dissipate energy in the form of heat.
- Eddy currents can be minimized by using laminated or layered cores in transformers and other electromagnetic devices.
- The energy loss due to eddy currents can be reduced by using materials with high electrical resistivity.
Slide 9: Applications of Eddy Currents
- The phenomenon of eddy currents finds various applications in our daily lives.
- Eddy current brakes are used in trains and roller coasters to provide controlled and efficient braking.
- Eddy current testing is used in non-destructive testing to detect defects in metal objects.
- Induction heating processes utilize eddy currents for heating purposes, such as in the case of induction cooktops.
