Faraday Law states that the magnitude of the inducedemf is proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic flux.
The negative sign indicates that the direction of induced emf always oppose the change of magnetic flux producing it (Lenz's Law)
d∅ : change of magnetic flux
dt : change of time
E : induced emf
For a coil of N turns is placed in a uniform magnetic field & but changing in the coil's area 4, the induced emf is given by.
E =-NB(cos∅)(dA/dt)
For a coil is connected in series to a resistor of resistance R and the induced emf & exist in the coil
IR = -N(d∅/dt)
To calculate the magnitude of induced emf, the negative sign can be ignored.
Lenz Law states that an induced electric current always flows in such a direction that it opposes the changeproducing it. This law is essentially a form of the lawofconservationofenergy.
• In Figure 5.6 the magnitude of the magnetic field at the solenoidincreases as the bar magnet is moved towards it.
• An emf is induced in the solenoid and the galvanometer indicates that a current is flowing.
To determine the direction of the current through the galvanometer which corresponds to a deflection in a particular sense, then the current through the solenoid seen is in the direction that make the solenoid upper end becomes a north pole.
• This opposes the motion of the bar magnet and obey the Lenz's law.
Consider a straight conductor PQ is placed perpendicular to the magneticfield and move the conductor to the left with constant velocity as shown In Figure 5.7.
• When the conductor move to the left thus the Induce current needs to flow in such a way to oppose the change which has Induced it based on Lenz's law.
• Hence galvanometer shows a deflection.
To determine the direction of the inducedcurrent (induced emf) flows in the conductor PQ, the Fleming's right hand (Dynamo) rule is used
Therefore the inducedcurrent flows from Q to P as shown in Figure 5.7.
• Since the induced current flows in the conductor PQ and is placed in the magnetic field then this conductor will experience magneticforce.
• Its direction is in the opposite direction of the motion
• At the moment when the switch S is closed, current/ begins to flow
• The magnetic flux through the solenoid Q increases with time. According to Faraday's law, an induced current due to induced emf will exist in solenoid Q.
• The induced current flows in solenoid Q must produce a magnetic field that oppose the change producing it (increase in flux).
• Hence based on Lenz's law, the induced current flows in circuit consists of solenoid Q is anticlockwise (Figure 5.9a) and the galvanometer shows a deflection.
• At the moment when the switch S is opened, the current / starts to decrease in the solenoid P and magnetic flux through the solenoid Q decreases with time.
• According to Faraday's law an induced current due to induced emf will exist in solenoid Q.
• The induced current flows in solenoid Q must produce a magnetic field that oppose the change producing it (decrease in flux).
• Hence based on Lenz's law, the induced current flows in circuit consists of solenoid Q is clockwise (Figure 5.9b) and the galvanometer seen to deflect in the opposite direction of Figure 5.9a.
For a coil of N turns is placed in the changing magneticfield B, the induced emf is given by E = -NA(cos∅)(dB/dt)
