Induction
 An induced current is produced by a
changing magnetic field
 There is an induced emf associated with
the induced current
 A current can be produced without a
battery present in the circuit
 Faraday’s Law of Induction describes
the induced emf
EMF Produced by a
Changing Magnetic Field, 1
 A loop of wire is connected to a sensitive ammeter
 When a magnet is moved toward the loop, the
ammeter deflects
 The deflection indicates a current induced in the wire
EMF Produced by a
Changing Magnetic Field, 2
 When the magnet is held stationary, there is
no deflection of the ammeter
 Therefore, there is no induced current
 Even though the magnet is inside the loop
EMF Produced by a
Changing Magnetic Field, 3
 The magnet is moved away from the loop
 The ammeter deflects in the opposite
direction
EMF Produced by a Changing
Magnetic Field, Summary
 The ammeter deflects when the magnet is
moving toward or away from the loop
 The ammeter also deflects when the loop is
moved toward or away from the magnet
 An electric current is set up in the coil as long
as relative motion occurs between the
magnet and the coil
 This is the induced current that is produced by an
induced emf
Faraday’s Experiment –
Set Up
 A primary coil is connected to
a switch and a battery
 The wire is wrapped around
an iron ring
 A secondary coil is also
wrapped around the iron ring
 There is no battery present in
the secondary coil
 The secondary coil is not
electrically connected to the
primary coil
Faraday’s Experiment –
Findings
 At the instant the switch is closed, the
galvanometer (ammeter) needle deflects in
one direction and then returns to zero
 When the switch is opened, the galvanometer
needle deflects in the opposite direction and
then returns to zero
 The galvanometer reads zero when there is a
steady current or when there is no current in
the primary circuit
Faraday’s Experiment –
Conclusions
 An electric current can be produced by a time-
varying magnetic field
 This would be the current in the secondary circuit of
this experimental set-up
 The induced current exists only for a short time
while the magnetic field is changing
 This is generally expressed as: an induced
emf is produced in the secondary circuit by
the changing magnetic field
 The actual existence of the magnetic field is not
sufficient to produce the induced emf, the field must
be changing
Magnetic Flux
 To express
Faraday’s finding
mathematically, the
magnetic flux is
used
 The flux depends on
the magnetic field
and the area:

Flux and Induced emf
 An emf is induced in a circuit when the
magnetic flux through the surface
bounded by the circuit changes with
time
 This summarizes Faraday’s experimental
results

Ways of Inducing an emf
 The magnitude of the field can change
with time
 The area enclosed by the loop can
change with time
 The angle q between the field and the
normal to the loop can change with time
 Any combination of the above can occur
Applications of
Faraday’s Law – Pickup Coil
 The pickup coil of an electric
guitar uses Faraday’s Law
 The coil is placed near the
vibrating string and causes a
portion of the string to
become magnetized
 When the string vibrates at
the some frequency, the
magnetized segment
produces a changing flux
through the coil
 The induced emf is fed to an
amplifier
Motional emf
 A motional emf is one
induced in a conductor
moving through a
magnetic field
 The electrons in the
conductor experience
a force that is directed
along l

F v B
Motional emf, cont
 Under the influence of the force, the electrons
move to the lower end of the conductor and
accumulate there
 As a result of the charge separation, an
electric field is produced inside the conductor
 The charges accumulate at both ends of the
conductor until they are in equilibrium with
regard to the electric and magnetic forces
Motional emf, final
 For equilibrium, q E = q v B or E = v B
 A potential difference is maintained
between the ends of the conductor as
long as the conductor continues to
move through the uniform magnetic field
 If the direction of the motion is reversed,
the polarity of the potential difference is
also reversed
Sliding Conducting Bar

Energy Considerations
 The applied force does work on the
conducting bar
 This moves the charges through a magnetic
field

Lenz’ Law
 Faraday’s Law indicates the induced
emf and the change in flux have
opposite algebraic signs
 This has a physical interpretation that
has come to be known as Lenz’ Law
 It was developed by a German
physicist, Heinrich Lenz
Lenz’ Law, cont
 Lenz’ Law states the polarity of the
induced emf in a loop is such that it
produces a current whose magnetic
field opposes the change in magnetic
flux through the loop
 The induced current tends to keep the
original magnetic flux through the circuit
from changing
Lenz’ Law – Example 1
 When the magnet is moved toward the stationary
loop, a current is induced as shown in a
 This induced current produces its own magnetic field
that is directed as shown in b to counteract the
increasing external flux
Lenz’ Law – Example 2
 When the magnet is moved away the stationary loop,
a current is induced as shown in c
 This induced current produces its own magnetic field
that is directed as shown in d to counteract the
decreasing external flux
Induced emf
and Electric Fields
 An electric field is created in the conductor
as a result of the changing magnetic flux
 Even in the absence of a conducting loop,
a changing magnetic field will generate an
electric field in empty space
 This induced electric field has different
properties than a field produced by
stationary charges
Induced emf

Induced emf
and Electric Fields, final
 The induced electric field is a
nonconservative field that is generated
by a changing magnetic field
 The field cannot be an electrostatic field
because if the field were electrostatic,
and hence conservative, the line
integral would be zero and it isn’t
Self-Induction
 When the switch is
closed, the current
does not
immediately reach
its maximum value
 Faraday’s Law can
be used to describe
the effect
Self-Induction, 2
 As the current increases with time, the
magnetic flux through the circuit loop
due to this current also increases with
time
 The corresponding flux due to this
current also increases
 This increasing flux creates an induced
emf in the circuit
Self-Inductance, 3
 The direction of the induced emf is such that
it would cause an induced current in the loop
which would establish a magnetic field
opposing the change in the original magnetic
field
 The direction of the induced emf is opposite
the direction of the emf of the battery
 Sometimes called a back emf
 This results in a gradual increase in the
current to its final equilibrium value
Self-Induction, 4
 This effect is called self-inductance
 Because the changing flux through the
circuit and the resultant induced emf arise
from the circuit itself
 The emf L is called a self-induced
emf
Self-Inductance, Equations
 An induced emf is always proportional
to the time rate of change of the current

the inductance of the coil

other physical characteristics

rest of the circuit is negligible compared
to the inductor
 However, even without a coil, a circuit will
have some self-inductance

Energy in a Magnetic Field

must supply more energy than in a
circuit without an inductor

magnetic field of the inductor

 I is the rate at which energy is being supplied by

Magnetic Levitation –
Repulsive Model
 A second major model for magnetic
levitation is the EDS (electrodynamic
system) model
 The system uses superconducting
magnets
 This results in improved energy
effieciency
Magnetic Levitation –
Repulsive Model, 2
 The vehicle carries a magnet
 As the magnet passes over a metal plate that
runs along the center of the track, currents
are induced in the plate
 The result is a repulsive force
 This force tends to lift the vehicle
 There is a large amount of metal required
 Makes it very expensive
Japan’s Maglev Vehicle
 The current is
induced by magnets
passing by coils
located on the side
of the railway
chamber
EDS Advantages
 Includes a natural stabilizing feature
 If the vehicle drops, the repulsion becomes
stronger, pushing the vehicle back up
 If the vehicle rises, the force decreases
and it drops back down
 Larger separation than EMS
 About 10 cm compared to 10 mm
EDS Disadvantages
 Levitation only exists while the train is in
motion
 Depends on a change in the magnetic flux
 Must include landing wheels for stopping and
starting
 The induced currents produce a drag force as
well as a lift force
 High speeds minimize the drag
 Significant drag at low speeds must be overcome
every time the vehicle starts up

    Magnetic Levitation – RepulsiveModel, 2  The vehicle carries a magnet  As the magnet passes over a metal plate that runs along the center of the track, currents are induced in the plate  The result is a repulsive force  This force tends to lift the vehicle  There is a large amount of metal required  Makes it very expensive

    Japan’s Maglev Vehicle The current is induced by magnets passing by coils located on the side of the railway chamber
  • 58.
    EDS Advantages  Includesa natural stabilizing feature  If the vehicle drops, the repulsion becomes stronger, pushing the vehicle back up  If the vehicle rises, the force decreases and it drops back down  Larger separation than EMS  About 10 cm compared to 10 mm

    EDS Disadvantages  Levitationonly exists while the train is in motion  Depends on a change in the magnetic flux  Must include landing wheels for stopping and starting  The induced currents produce a drag force as well as a lift force  High speeds minimize the drag  Significant drag at low speeds must be overcome every time the vehicle starts up
