1 Topic: Electromagnetic induction
Objectives: Define and calculate magnetic flux. Calculate the induced EMF in a coil when there is a changing magnetic flux through it by using Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction.

2 Magnetic flux is the product of the average magnetic field times the perpendicular area that it penetrates. = ABcos = magnetic flux in T·m2 A = area of the coil in m2 B = magnetic field in T = angle between B and the area vector(an arrow drawn perpendicular to the plane of the coil)

3  B  is the angle between B and the area vector (red arrow)

4 Electromagnetic induction
is the production of a potential difference (voltage) across a conductor when it is exposed to a varying magnetic field. Discovery was credited to Michael Faraday. Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction states that any change in the magnetic environment of a coil of wire will cause a voltage (EMF) to be "induced" in the coil.

5 Induced EMF in a Coil EMF = - N  t = - N (f - i)
= - N(AfBfcosf – AiBicosi) EMF = induced electromotive force in V N = number of turns in the coil A= area of the coil in m2 B = magnetic field in T = magnetic flux in T·m2 t = time it takes for the flux to change in s

6 Induced EMF in straight conductor
EMF = BLvsin EMF = induced electromotive force in V B = magnetic field in T L = length of the conductor in m v = speed of the conductor in m/s

8 Lenz’s law Remember the negative sign in the equation EMF = - N  ? t The sign is explained by Lenz’s law.

9 Lenz’s law When an emf is generated by a change in magnetic flux according to Faraday's Law, the polarity of the induced emf is such that it produces a current whose magnetic field opposes the change which produces it. The induced magnetic field inside any loop of wire always acts to keep the magnetic flux in the loop constant.
