Transforming energy with magnetism Magnetic Induction Transforming energy with magnetism

What’s the Point? This is how electric current is harnessed to do mechanical work. It’s another way to think about the Lorentz force. ☺

Magnetic Flux Field through a surface FB = ∫B·dA Effectively the number of field lines enclosed by a loop

Flux change creates emf Faraday’s Law The rate of magnetic flux change through a loop equals the emf induced around the loop. e = − dF dt

Group Work a b c d e At which position(s) does the most magnetic flux pass through the loop? At which position(s) does the magnetic flux through the loop change the fastest?

Group Work a b c d e What is the current direction at these points?

Faraday’s Law Greatest flux F when A || B c d e Greatest flux F when A || B Fastest change in flux DF/Dt when A  B

Induced current direction Lenz’s Law When a changing magnetic flux induces a current, the induced current’s magnetic field opposes the flux change.

Lenz’s Law Example From a to b: flux decreases; DF into face of loop ← Induced current a b c d e From a to b: flux decreases; DF into face of loop ← Loop current increases Induced field increases out of face of loop

Group Work Which direction is the flux change? What current would oppose it? What is the Lorentz force on each side? B If the magnetic field intensifies, in what direction will the induced current be?
