Lenz's Law
Definition from the book:
The induced emf resulting from a changing magnetic flux has a
polarity that leads to an induced current whose direction is such that the
induced magnetic field opposes the original flux change.
My definition:
The induced emf resulting from a changing magnetic flux is such that
a current is created in a conducting coil so that the resulting field from this
current tries to prevent the magnetic flux within the coil from changing. If
the flux through the coil decreases, the direction of the current is such that
the field produced by it will increase the flux through the coil. The current
is in the opposite direction if the flux would increase.
Lenz's Law (2)

External B field
We originally have a flux of 5
from the external B field. The
external B field changes such
that the flux is now 2. An emf
is produced in the conducting
loop such that it produces a
field which tries to increase
the flux to the original value
of 5.
Another Graphical Description of Lenz's
Law
The light red area is an area of constant magnetic field.
Outside this area, there is no field.
As the conducting loop moves in a region with no field, there
is no current in the loop since the magnetic flux through the
loop is constant (zero).
As the loop enters the region of constant field, the magnetic
flux through the loop changes so there is an induced current in
the loop with a direction such that the magnetic field from the
current is opposite to the external field.
When the loop moves through the constant field, there is once
again no induced current since the change is flux is zero
(however there is still a non-zero flux).
When the loop leaves the region of constant field, the flux
through the loop once again changes and induces a current in
the opposite direction to that induced before.

Recall that a conducting bar moving
through a magnetic field is given by:
where θ is the angle between the velocity
and the direction of B.

As the coil rotates through the field, the
perpendicular component of the velocity for
each side of the coil becomes larger and smaller.
The maximum value is the tangential velocity of
the coil and the minimum value is zero.
Electric Generator (3)
As the coil rotates through the field, the emf is given by: Emf = 2 v L Bsin
and if the coil has N turns, your emf is given by: Emf = N 2 v L B sin
t
and also recall that:
Recall that with a rotating object, you can relate the tangential velocity to the angular
frequency using: v r
t
Looking at the radius of the coil (remember we need this for the
tangential velocity) we find it is: r W 2

Mutual Inductance
This is the term which describes what
happens when a changing current in one
coil (which produces a magnetic field
inside that coil - think Lenz's Law)
induces a magnetic field in a second coil.
There is no direct physical contact
between the two coils. Only the magnetic
field connects them. We find:
Ns s M I p
or, solving for M,
Ns s

Transformers
Often, we wish to power a device
with a voltage other than what is
available to us.
One example is a television which
requires about 15,000 V to
accelerate the electrons to near the
speed of light so the magnetic
''Steering Field'' can change their
direction appreciably.
Unfortunately, we do not have a
source of 15,000 V in each of our
houses.
A transformer is used to either ''step up'' a voltage or ''step down'' one.
Transformers
The ''transformer equation'' is given by:
Vs
Vp
Ns
Np
I pV p
or
I p Vs
Is V p
I sV s

Pp
A good transformer is constructed such that
no energy is lost in the voltage
transformation. Since power is energy per
time, this means:
This means if a transformer increases the voltage, it simultaneously decreases the current.
