Lecture19 Part 2 Induced Emf

The document outlines today's agenda which includes: 1) Discussing how changing magnetic flux can induce an emf and determining the direction of induced emf using Lenz's Law. 2) Using Faraday's Law to calculate the emf induced in a circuit. 3) Understanding how generators work and using Faraday's Law to calculate parameters associated with generators. 4) Explaining back emf using Lenz's Law.

Today’s agenda:

Induced emf.
You must understand how changing magnetic flux can induce an emf, and be able to
determine the direction of the induced emf.

Faraday’s Law.
You must be able to use Faraday’s Law to calculate the emf induced in a circuit.

Lenz’s Law.
You must be able to use Lenz’s Law to determine the direction induced current, and
therefore induced emf.

Generators.
You must understand how generators work, and use Faraday’s Law to calculate numerical
values of parameters associated with generators.

Back emf.
You must be able to use Lenz’s law to explain back emf.
Induced emf and Faraday’s Law

Magnetic Induction

We have found that an electric current can give rise to a


magnetic field…

I wonder if a magnetic field can somehow give rise to an


electric current…
It is observed experimentally that changes in magnetic flux
induce an emf in a conductor.

An electric current is induced if there is a closed circuit (e.g.,


loop of wire) in the changing magnetic flux.

A constant magnetic flux does not induce an emf—it takes a


changing magnetic flux.
Note that “change” may or may not not require observable (to
you) motion.
 A magnet may move through a loop of wire,
wire or a
loop of wire may be moved through a magnetic field.
These involve observable motion.

 A changing current in a loop of wire gives rise to a


changing magnetic field (predicted by Ampere’s
law) which can induce a current in another nearby
loop of wire.

In the this case, nothing observable (to your eye) is moving,


although, of course microscopically, electrons are in motion.

Induced emf is produced by a changing magnetic flux.
