... the current is zero. At 270°, the loop is parallel to the magnetic field. The current is at its maximum. However, because the sides of the loop are in opposite locations, the current in the loop is in the opposite direction. As the loop continues to rotate, the current continues to change direction. ...

... What does this mean? If you move a bar magnet toward a loop of wire, it increases the flux through the loop, which induces a voltage around the loop, which causes an electric current to flow in the wire! It means you no longer need to comb your cat on a dry day to create electric current, and you no ...

Aurora

An aurora is a natural light display in the sky, predominantly seen in the high latitude (Arctic and Antarctic) regions. Auroras are produced when the magnetosphere is sufficiently disturbed by the solar wind that the trajectories of charged particles in both solar wind and magnetospheric plasma, mainly in the form of electrons and protons, precipitate them into the upper atmosphere (thermosphere/exosphere), where their energy is lost. The resulting ionization and excitation of atmospheric constituents emits light of varying colour and complexity. The form of the aurora, occurring within bands around both polar regions, is also dependent on the amount of acceleration imparted to the precipitating particles. Precipitating protons generally produce optical emissions as incident hydrogen atoms after gaining electrons from the atmosphere. Proton auroras are usually observed at lower latitudes. Different aspects of an aurora are elaborated in various sections below.
