Ac and dc current generators
Electromagnetic Induction, 1830-1832
Change of magnetic flux through the
loop of wire induces current (i.e. emf)
in the loop.

Wilhelm Weber (1804 – 1891)
Flux can be changed by change of B or A or angle between B and dA.
In order to find the direction of the induced current it is convenient to write the
faraday’s law in the form
l0
in the loop
d B where l0 is the unite vector of a circulation
which direction is connected with dA by a RHR:

Motional emf exists in the

It does not require the existence
of the closed circuit.

Example
A single rectangular loop of wire with the dimensions inside a region of B=0.5 T and part is outside the
field. The total resistance of the loop is 0.2Ω . The loop is pulled from the field with a constant
velocity of 5m/s.
1)What is the magnitude and direction of the induced current?
2) In which part of the loop an induced emf is developed?
3) Find the force required to pull the loop at a constant velocity.
4) Explain why such force is required.

Induced current results in
torque which slows down a
rotation. External torque is
required to maintain the
rotation with a constant
frequency.

Resistance strongly depends on the direction of the spin in the first ferromagnetic
layer. When it is the same as in the next ferromagnetic layer R is small, when it’s
opposite to it R is big.

devices: miniaturization of PC, ipods, etc.

Origin of emf? No motion, moreover no B outside
solenoid, i.e. in the region of a wire loop. Then it
should be E which results in induced current.

Consider the process of charging the capacitor.
Calculate B in front of the plate of capacitor at r>R.

James Clerk Maxwell
(1831 –1879)
Maxwell introduced displacement current, wrote these four equations together,
predicted the electromagnetic waves propagating in vacuum with velocity of light and
shown that light itself is e.m. wave.
