23.5 Faraday's law and Lenz's law

Cards (4)

  • Faraday's law states that the magnitude of the induced e.m.f is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux linkage
  • e.m.f is dp to magnetic flux linkage / time
  • Faradays law can be written as an equation where the constant of proportionality is a minus sign.
  • Lenz's law states that the direction of the induced e.m.f or current is always such as to oppose the change producing it.
