Figure 1: Movement of a magnet relative to a coil produces emfs as shown (a–d). The same emfs are
produced if the coil is moved relative to the magnet. This short-lived emf is only present during the
motion. The greater the speed, the greater the magnitude of the emf, and the emf is zero when
there is no motion, as shown in (e).
The magnetic field has two main characteristics. The first one is the magnitude B of the field and is measured in teslas (symbol
T), or newtons per meter per ampere. The second - magnetic flux Φ - is defined as the measure of the strength of a magnetic
field passing through a given area and is measured in webers (symbol Wb).
Magnitude and flux are interdependent - you can use the equation below to easily switch between them. A stands for the
cross-sectional area of the coil, in which the EMF is induced.
Φ=B*A
where ϕ=B⋅A and B is the strength of the magnetic field. N is the number of
circuit loops. A magnetic field is measured in units of teslas (T). The minus sign
indicates direction and that the induced emf tends to oppose the change in
the magnetic flux. The minus sign can be ignored when calculating
magnitudes.
IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
How do we calculate for the electromotive force?
Usually, you won't immediately know what magnetic flux is in the coil. But don't worry, though - our electromagnetic
induction calculator can find it, too! Just follow the steps below to calculate the induced voltage.
Decide on the cross-sectional area and the number of turns in the loop. For example, you can use a circular coil with a
cross-section of 30 cm² and with ten turns.
Find out what is the magnitude of the magnetic field. For instance, we can assume a field of 0.4 teslas.
Calculate the change in magnetic flux as the product of magnetic field and the cross-sectional area:
dΦ = B * A
Now, determine how long it takes the magnetic field to change by 0.4 T. We can assume that it took 8 seconds.
EMF = - N * dΦ / dt
The induced voltage is equal to 0.0015 V. The minus sign indicates that the direction of the current opposes the direction
of the magnetic flux.
1. A coil of wire of 20 turns has across sectional area of 0.1 m 2. A magnetic field of 0.5T passes through the coil
parallel to the plane of the coil. What is the total magnetic flux through the coil?
2. A small 10 mm diameter permanent magnet produces a field of 100 mT. The field drops away rapidly with
distance and is negligible more than 1 mm from the surface. If this magnet moves at a speed of 1 m/s through a
100-turn coil of length 1 mm and diameter just larger than the magnet, what is the EMF induced?
3. A uniform magnetic field its intensity is 3x10-3 T pass an area of coil with 100 turns which makes 60 angles with the
coil. What is the area of the coil if the magnetic flux is 0.15 Wb?
4. A UHF television loop antenna has a diameter of 11 cm. The magnetic field of a TV signal is normal to the plane
of the loop and, at one instant of time, its magnitude is changing at the rate 0.16 T/s. The magnetic field is uniform.
What emf is induced in the antenna?
4 The diagram shows four loops (A, B, C, D) are placed in uniform magnetic field B. Use the values in this diagram then
order the values of magnetic flux ascending.
