Lecture 31 Chapter 20 Magnetic Flux Faraday’s Law 12 April 1999 Monday Physics 112
Chapter 20 Induced Voltages and Inductance We saw in Chapter 19 that moving charges (currents) create magnetic fields.Nature often reveals a great deal of symmetry. So, scientists wondered, “Can magnetic fields can create currents?” You might guess that the answer is, “Yes.” In this chapter, we’ll explore this physical process known as induction.
A _ + Shortly after Oersted’s discovery that currents create magnetic fields, Michael Faraday (England) and Joseph Henry (US) conducted experiments to determine if magnetic fields created electrical currents... Soft magnetic material primary coil secondary coil Secondary Circuit Primary Circuit
A _ + Faraday’s Observations: With theswitch open, no readingon the ammeter. When theswitch is closed, theammeter needle deflects momentarilytoward the right,then returns to 0.
A _ + Faraday’s Observations: With a constant current flowing through the primary circuit, the ammeter shows no reading. When the switch is opened, the ammeter needle deflects to the left momentarily, then returns to 0.
A _ + Faraday’s Conclusions: Steady currentsin the primary produce constant magnetic fields, which result in no current in the secondary circuit. Changing currents in the primary circuit result in changing magnetic fields, which result in induced currents in the secondary circuit.
A S N If we move a bar magnet toward a loop of wire, the ammeter deflects to the left. When we stop moving the magnet, the ammeter reads 0. When we pull the magnet away from the loop, the ammeter deflects to the right.
A S N As the magnet moves toward the loop, the magnetic field near the loop increases. As the magnet moves away from the loop, the magnetic field near the loop decreases. Such results are consistent with Faraday’s experiment: Changing magnetic fields lead to induced currents.

? What is the magnetic flux through a square loop of side length 10 cm whose normal is at an angle of 60o to the direction of a uniform magnetic field of strength 1 T?
