Electromagnetic Induction
Lab Challenge
You can send electricity through a
conducting wire to make a magnetic
field. Is the reverse possible? Can
you use a magnet and a conducting
wire to make electricity?
Electromagnetic Induction
Background
Michael Faraday (1791 - 1867) discovered a
relationship between a changing magnetic flux Φ,
and the potential within a conductor ε:
Known as Faraday's Law, this relationship is defined by two key elements, the
number of turns in a coil N, and the change in magnetic flux Φ. Magnetic flux is
related to the strength of the magnetic field, the area enclosed by the wire loop
and the angle between them. Because of the geometry of our experimental setup,
we can say that the flux is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field.
Electromagnetic Induction
Safety
Be careful with magnets.
Strong magnets can disrupt
electronic devices and
severely pinch any skin that
comes between them.

correct sequence of the
steps, then take a snapshot

Electromagnetic Induction
Part 1 - As the Coil Turns
In the first part of this lab, we determine if passing
a magnet through a coil of wire gives rise to a
voltage (or electromotive force), and secondly,
whether the number of turns in the coil N has any
effect on the amount of voltage as predicted in
Faraday's equation.
Note: For the best comparison, always be sure to use the
same orientation of the magnet when dropping it through
the coil.
Electromagnetic Induction

Part 2 - More Magnet
The second part of Faraday's equation refers
to the amount of change in magnetic flux.
From our observations of magnets, different
types of material produce different
strengths of magnetic field. Try at least two
magnets of different strengths to see if the
strength of the magnet makes a difference.
Use only one of the coils and drop the
magnets from the same height each time.

Part 3 - The Faster the Flux
If the strength of the magnet affects the change
in flux, how about the speed at which the
magnet passes through the coil? Studies of
acceleration show that the farther an object falls
in a gravitational field, the faster it travels. If the
magnet passes through the coil faster, it is
reasonable that the magnetic flux in the coil is
changing faster. Use one of your coils to find out.

be wide enough to allow your
magnet to pass through freely, but
narrow enough to fit inside the coil.
You will mark four positions on the

will drop the magnet from the
opening of the tube, then slide the
tube through the coil to each mark,
dropping the magnet from the tube
opening each time.
