1 electricity and magnetism meet!
Magnetic Induction electricity and magnetism meet!

2 Faraday’s Law In the 1830’s both Faraday and Henry discovered that a changing magnetic field creates a current. This can be given a precise mathematical form as: This is called Magnetic Induction 𝐸𝑀𝐹= 𝐸∙𝑑𝑙=− 𝑑 ∅ 𝑚 𝑑𝑡

3 An Intriguing Possibility...
If changing magnetic flux can create a current, can one also conclude that a changing magnetic field can produce an electric field? Don’t we already have evidence that the converse - a changing electric field produces a magnetic field - occurs?

4 Examples... Simple cases of magnetic induction Motional EMF
Lenz’s Law: Induced EMF and induced Current oppose each other “Back” EMF: This explains the negative sign in

5 Inductance Inductance is a property of any conductor and can be defined in terms of the concepts of current and magnetic flux by the following simple expression: L is known as the self-inductance and is measured in Henries (H)

6 Example... Inductance of a solenoid:

7 Inductance in Circuits
If we run a current through a solenoid (inductor), it will produce a back emf and we can apply Kirchhoff’s Rules to account for this in a circuit:

8 Generators and Alternating Current
What happens if we spin a conducting loop in a magnetic field? answer… its easy to show that:

9 Modifying old Concepts...
Root-mean-square Inductive Reactance Capacitive Reactance
