Motional EMF
If a conductor moves perpendicular to a
magnetic field, a potential difference is
induced across the conductor
Moving the conductor in the B-field
produces magnetic force
Charge separation from magnetic force
produces electric force
At equilibrium electric force balances
magnetic force
Motional EMF
qvB = qE
Multiply both sides by
L
vBL = qEL
ΔV = vBL
A bar of length 10 cm closes a circuit as shown. The
bar moves at 2.0 m/s perpendicular to a B-field of
strength .25 T. a) Find the current in the circuit if the
light bulb has a resistance of 5.0 Ω. b) Ignoring the
resistance of the connecting wires find the potential
difference across the light bulb. Label the higher and
lower potential side of the light bulb.
Faraday’s Law
In 1820 Oersted demonstrated that a
current could create a magnetic field – i.e.
that an E-field could produce a B-field
Almost immediately Faraday asked the
opposite question – Could a B-field
produce an E-field?
Faraday’s Law
Faraday worked on the question for 11
years until he accidentally found his
answer while disconnecting an
unsuccessful experiment
Faraday had been searching for a current
produced by a steady field, but it was a
changing field that produced the current
and he produced the changing magnetic
field as he disconnected his experiment
Magnetic Flux
Magnetic flux
through a single
surface
ΦB = BA cosφ
If a coil has N
turns
ΦB = NBA cosφ
Faraday’s Law
An EMF (potential difference) is
induced when the magnetic flux
through a surface changes in time

pole of a bar magnet is inserted into a
coil? (OBS)

removed form a coil? (OBS)

observed now? (OBS)
Lenz’s Law

electromagnet. When the magnet is

A wire is formed into a loop of radius .050
m. The coil is oriented perpendicular to a
uniform B-field of strength .075 T. a)
Sketch the situation. b) The ends of the
wire are pulled so that the wire collapses in
a time of .060 s. Is an EMF induced?
Explain. c) Find the magnitude of the
induced EMF. d) If a 2.0 Ω resistor is
connected across the ends of the wire, how
much power is dissipated. Where did the
power come from?
Applications of Faraday’s Law

Transformers
Pick up coils
Generators
In a generator, a coil
is turned at a constant
angular frequency in
a B-field
What produces the
changing flux to
generate the EMF?
(GR)
Generators
Flux is produced by changing angle
θ = ωt
ΦB = NAB cos ωt
ΔV = -dΦ/dt = NABω sin ωt
What does the output of a generator look
like? (GR)
AC Generators
Output of AC
Generator is sine
wave
Can we make a DC
Generator?
(BRST)
DC Generator
To create a DC generator
(such as Genecon) use a
split ring
Output for a simple DC
generator is shown
Output can be made
smoother by more
sophisticated
combinations of rings and
magnets
a) What must be the magnetic
field strength so that a
generator consisting of 1000
turns of a coil of radius 25 cm
produces a peak output of 160
V when turned at a frequency of
60 Hz? b) Sketch a graph of
the output of the generator.
Why AC?
In the early days of electrification, there
was a debate of whether power
companies should supply ac or dc
Edison favored dc whereas Westinghouse
favored ac
Clearly Westinghouse won the debate.
Why?
Transformers
Electromagnetic induction can be used to
change ac electric potential from one
value to another
Transformers
Flux through one coil is the same
everywhere
dΦB/dt is the same for each coil
Vp = -Np dΦB/dt and
Vs = -Ns dΦB/dt
After a little algebra
N s Vs
N p Vp
Transformers
If the number of turns in the secondary is
greater than in the primary, is the
secondary potential greater or less than
the primary? (GR)
If the number of turns in the secondary is
less than in the primary, is the secondary
potential greater or less than the primary?
(GR)
Transformers
If the number of turns in the secondary is
greater than in the primary, the secondary
potential is greater. This is called a step
up transformer
If the number of turns in the secondary is
less than in the primary, the secondary
potential is less than the primary. This is
called a step down transformer
Ex. To operate a neon sign a
potential difference of 12000 V is
needed. What must be the ratio
of turns if the primary potential is
120 V?
A DC potential of 100 V is applied to the
primary of a step-up transformer with
turns ratio of 500. What is the potential
difference across the secondary?

Power and Current in Transformers
Conservation of Energy implies
power at primary is the same as
power at secondary
What happens to current?
IsVs = IpVp so
is V p
i p Vs
Current in Transformers
In a step up transformer, current is
decreased
Is step down transformer current is
increased
Application to Power Generation
Need to minimize losses in transmission
Losses given by i2R, so lower current means
less loss
Transmitting at higher potential decreases
current
Self Inductance
If you apply current to a coil,
you will induce an EMF
A
A
V = - dΦ/dt = -d(μ0niNA)/dt =
- μ0nINA di/dt
The induced EMF is
proportional to the change in
current V = -Ldi/dt
Where L = μ0n2Al is called
the inductance of the coil
l
RL Circuits
EX. a) Use
Kirchhoff’s Voltage
Law to find an
equation for the
current in the circuit.
b) Find a solution if
I(0) = 0.
Current grows
with exponential
asymptote to
steady value of
E0/R.
Time Constant is
given by L/R
Ex. An RL circuit w/o a battery
has an initial current I0. Sketch
the circuit. b) Use KVL to find
an equation for the current. c)
Find I(t).
Magnetic Energy
Circuits do not turn on or off
instantaneously.
Inductance means that circuits turn on and
off with a time constant L/R
This is due to the fact that energy is stored
in the inductor. It takes time to initially store
the energy in the inductor when the switch
is closed, it takes time to remove the
energy from the inductor when the switch is
opened.

For a coil I = B/(μ0N/l)
and L = μ0N2Al
So Energy =
