(a) As the conducting plate enters the field (position 1), the eddy currents are counterclockwise. As the plate leaves the field (position 2), the currents are clockwise. In either case, the force on the plate is opposite to the velocity, and eventually the plate comes to rest. (b) When slots are cut in the conducting plate, the eddy currents are reduced and the plate swings more freely through the magnetic field.

Demo E-M Cannon v Connect solenoid to a source of alternating voltage. ~ side view F F B B B top view The flux through the area to axis of solenoid therefore changes in time. A conducting ring placed on top of the solenoid will have a current induced in it opposing this change. There will then be a force on the ring since it contains a current which is circulating in the presence of a magnetic field.

Lecture 14, ACT 1 Suppose two aluminum rings are used in the demo; Ring 2 is identical to Ring 1 except that it has a small slit as shown. Let F 1 be the force on Ring 1; F 2 be the force on Ring 2. (a) F 2 < F 1 (b) F 2 = F 1 (c) F 2 > F 1
8
Lecture 14, ACT 2 Suppose one copper and one aluminum rings are used in the demo; the resistance of the two rings is similar but the aluminum ring has less mass. Let a 1 be the acceleration of ring 1 and a 2 be the acceleration of Ring 2. (a) a 2 < a 1 (b) a 2 = a 1 (c) a 2 > a 1 Ring 1 Ring 2
9
Lecture 14, ACT 3 Suppose you take the aluminum ring, shoot it off the cannon, and try to nail your annoying neighbor. Unfortunately, you just miss. You think, maybe I can hit him (her) if I change the temperature of the ring. In order to hit your neighbor, do you want to heat the ring, cool the ring, or is it just hopeless? (a) heat (b) cool (c) hopeless Hot Ring Cool Ring

Self-Inductance X X X X X X emf induced in loop opposing initial emf Self-Induction: the act of a changing current through a loop inducing an opposing current in that same loop. X X X X X X Consider the loop at the right. magnetic field produced in the area enclosed by the loop. flux through loop changes switch closed current starts to flow in the loop.
12
Self-Inductance I The magnetic field produced by the current in the loop shown is proportional to that current. We define this constant of proportionality between flux and current to be the inductance L. We can also define the inductance L, using Faraday's Law, in terms of the emf induced by a changing current. The flux, therefore, is also proportional to the current.
13
Self-Inductance The inductance of an inductor ( a set of coils in some geometry, e.g., solenoid, toroid) then, like a capacitor, can be calculated from its geometry alone if the device is constructed from conductors and air. If extra material (e.g. iron core) is added, then we need to add some knowledge of materials as we did for capacitors (dielectrics) and resistors (resistivity)

Self-Inductance The inductance of an inductor ( a set of coils in some geometry..eg solenoid, toroid) then, like a capacitor, can be calculated from its geometry alone if the device is constructed from conductors and air. If extra material (eg iron core) is added, then we need to add some knowledge of materials as we did for capacitors (dielectrics) and resistors (resistivity) Archetypal inductor is a long solenoid, just as a pair of parallel plates is the archetypal capacitor. r << l SI UNITS for L : Henry

Calculation l r N turns Long Solenoid: N turns total, radius r, Length l For a single turn, The total flux through solenoid is given by: Inductance of solenoid can then be calculated as: This (as for R and C) depends only on geometry (material) (n: number of turns per unit length)
16
Energy of an Inductor How much energy is stored in an inductor when a current is flowing through it? a b L I I The total U stored in the inductor when the current = I is the shaded triangle: Start with loop rule: R = -RI L = -L I / t Multiply this equation by I: P L is the rate at which energy is being stored in the inductor: I i II LiLi LiILiI LI
17
Where is the Energy Stored? Claim: (without proof) energy is stored in the Magnetic field itself (just as in the Capacitor / Electric field case). To calculate this energy density, consider the uniform field generated by a long solenoid: l r N turns The inductance L is: We can turn this into an energy density by dividing by the volume containing the field: Energy U:

RL Circuits At t=0, the switch is closed and the current I starts to flow. Loop rule: Note that this eqn is identical in form to that for the RC circuit with the following substitutions: I a b L I RC: RC RL:
