•
Faraday’s Law: A changing magnetic
flux through a coil of wire induces an
EMF in the wire, proportional to the
number of turns, N.
•
Lenz’s Law: The current driven by an induced EMF creates
an induced magnetic field that opposes the flux change.

•
Induction and energy transfer: The forces on the loop
oppose the motion of the loop, and the power required to
sustain motion provides electrical power to the loop.

B = 0 there so it’s not the Lorentz force
An induced electric field Eind along the loop causes current to flow
It is caused directly by d/dt within the loop path
E-field is there even without the conductor (no current flowing)
Electric field lines here are loops that don’t terminate on charge.
E-field is a non-conservative (non-electrostatic) field as the line
integral around a closed path is not zero

Find the magnitude E of the induced electric field at
points within and outside the magnetic field.
Assume: dB/dt = constant within the circular shaded
area. E must be tangential: Gauss’ law says any normal
component of E would require charge enclosed. |E| is
constant on the circular integration path due to symmetry.

RELATED FARADAYS LAW EFFECTS IN COILS:
Mutual-induction between coils: di1/dt in “transformer primary” induces EMF
and current i2 in “linked” secondary coil (transformer principle).
N
Self-induction in a single Coil: di/dt produces “back
EMF” due to Lenz & Faraday Laws: ind opposes d/dt due
to current change. Eind opposes di/dt.
• ANY magnetic flux change is resisted, analogous to inertia
• Changing current in a single coil generates changing magnetic field.
• Changing Flux induces flux opposing the change, along with opposing EMF,
current, and induced field..
• This back EMF limits the rate of current (and therefore flux) change in the circuit
• For increasing current,
back EMF limits the
rate of increase
• For decreasing current,
back EMF sustains the
current
Inductance measures opposition to the rate of change of current

Inductors in Circuits—The RL Circuit
• Inductors, sometimes called “coils”, are common circuit components.
• Insulated wire is wrapped around a core.
• They are mainly used in AC filters and tuned (resonant) circuits.
Analysis of series RL circuits:
E
•
A battery with EMF
drives a current around the loop
•
•
Changing current produces a back EMF or sustaining EMF EL in the inductor.
Derive circuit equations: apply Kirchoff’s loop rule, convert to differential
equations (as for RC circuits) and solve.
New rule: when traversing an inductor in the same
direction as the assumed current, insert:

• i through R is clockwise and growing: EL opposes E
• As t  infinity, current is large & stable, di/dt  0
Back EMF EL 0, i  E / R,
L acts like an ordinary wire
• At t = 0, rapidly growing current but i = 0, EL= E
L acts like a broken wire
Energy is stored in L & dissipated in R
• Energy stored in L will be dissipated in R
• EL acts like a battery maintaining current
At t = 0 current i = E / R, unchanged, CW
• Current begins to collapse
Current  0 as t  infinity – energy is depleted

R
• After growth phase equilibrium, switch from a to b, battery out
• Current i0 = E / R initially still flowing CW through R
• Inductance tries to maintain current using stored energy
• Polarity of EL reverses versus growth. Eventually EL 0
