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, 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 – 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

Page 14: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

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

Page 15: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

Magnetic Flux To express

Faraday’s finding mathematically, the magnetic flux is used

The flux depends on the magnetic field and the area:

Page 16: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

16

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

Page 17: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

17

Faraday’s Law – Statements Faraday’s Law of Induction states that

the emf induced in a circuit is equal to the time rate of change of the magnetic flux through the circuit

Faraday’s Law – Statements, cont If the circuit consists of N identical and

concentric loops, and if the field lines pass through all loops, the induced emf becomes

The loops are in series, so the emfs in the individual loops add to give the total emf

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 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

23.2 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

Page 30: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

30

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

Page 31: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

31

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 The change in energy of the system during

some time interval must be equal to the transfer of energy into the system by work

The power input is equal to the rate at which energy is delivered to the resistor

23.3 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

Page 50: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

50

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

23.5 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 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

23.5 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

Page 70: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

70

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

Page 71: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

71

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

Page 72: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

72

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

Page 73: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

73

Self-Inductance, Equations An induced emf is always proportional

to the time rate of change of the current

L is a constant of proportionality called the inductance of the coil It depends on the geometry of the coil and

other physical characteristics

23.6 RL Circuit, Introduction A circuit element that has a large self-

inductance is called an inductor The circuit symbol is We assume the self-inductance of the

rest of the circuit is negligible compared to the inductor However, even without a coil, a circuit will

have some self-inductance

Page 84: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

84

RL Circuit, Analysis An RL circuit contains an

inductor and a resistor When the switch is closed

(at time t=0), the current begins to increase

At the same time, a back emf is induced in the inductor that opposes the original increasing current

23.7 Energy in a Magnetic Field In a circuit with an inductor, the battery

must supply more energy than in a circuit without an inductor

Part of the energy supplied by the battery appears as internal energy in the resistor

The remaining energy is stored in the magnetic field of the inductor

23.8 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

Page 108: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

108

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

Page 109: Chapter 23 Faraday’s Law and Induction 2 Fig. 23-CO, p. 765

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
