Overview
In 1831, Faraday discovered that a changing magnetic field
creates an electric field
 This effect is called magnetic induction
 Faraday’s discovery couples electricity and magnetism
in a fundamental way
Magnetic induction is the key to MANY technologically
relevant inventions.

Implication
Faraday showed that an electric current is produced in a wire loop only
when the magnetic field thru the loop is changing  A changing magnetic
field produces an electric field
1.
An electric field produced in this way is called an
induced electric field
2. The phenomena is called electromagnetic induction

Faraday’s Law relies on the concept of magnetic flux
Magnetic Flux is the product of an area (m2)
with a component of a magnetic field (T)
passing perpendicularly through it.

“area” vector

Magnetic flux
is similar to
the concept of
electric flux
ΦB = BA cos(Θ)
Θ measures the angle between B and A
Units: ΦB = T•m2=1 Weber = 1 Wb

Magnetic Flux is easy to calculate for
uniform magnetic fields
=3.0 m2
=2.0 T
What is the magnetic flux
through the surface?
=60o
ΦB = BA cos(Θ)
=2.0 T × 3.0 m2 × cos(60o)
=6.0 × 0.5 Tm2= 3 Wb

Minus sign is due
to Lenz’s Law
Four ways the flux can change:
magnitude of

with time
loop rotates so
the angle

area

loop moves

Faraday’s Law: An induced emf is produced in a coil whenever
the magnetic flux changes with time. Here we focus on an
increasing flux through a loop.

3. I is the
induced
current that
flows due to E
Subtle Point: The negative
sign indicates that the
induced emf is opposite to
change in magnetic flux
that causes it.
Key Idea: An emf is produced by the changing magnetic flux.
The emf in turn produces an induced current I.

Example: What is the induced emf if the magnetic field through a
six turn coil increases at a rate of 0.17 T/s?
E =-
The negative sign
indicates that the
induced emf acts to
“oppose” the change in
magnetic flux that
causes it

It is often easier to take the absolute
value of Farady’s Law to find the
magnitude of the induced emf and then
use Lenz’s Law to find the direction of
the induced current that results.
Since coil has six turns, E = 6 × (0.15 V) = 0.90 V

Lenz’s Law
There are many ways to state Lenz’s Law. Here
is one that makes sense to me:
An induced electric current, produced by a
changing magnetic field, will flow in a direction
such that it will create its own induced
magnetic field that opposes the magnetic field
that created it.

Lenz’s Law – Example 1
I
A. Assume a metal loop in which the applied magnetic field (solid
arrows) passes upward through it
B. Assume the magnetic flux increases with time
C. The induced magnetic field produced by the induced emf must
oppose the change in flux
D. Therefore, the induced magnetic field (dotted arrows) must be
downward and the induced current will be clockwise (viewed
from the top of coil)

An induced current must flow in the loop to produce a magnetic
field (inside the loop) that opposes the change in flux.
