Hans Christian Oersted (1777 – 1851)
X
1822
In 1820 he showed that a current
produces a magnetic field.

André-Marie Ampère (1775 – 1836)
French mathematics professor who only
a week after learning of Oersted’s
discoveries in Sept. 1820 demonstrated
that parallel wires carrying currents
attract and repel each other.
attract
A moving charge of 1 coulomb
per second is a current of
1 ampere (amp).
repel

Michael Faraday (1791 – 1867)
Self-taught English chemist and physicist
discovered electromagnetic induction in
1831 by which a changing magnetic field
induces an electric field.
A capacitance of 1 coulomb per volt
is called a farad (F)
Faraday’s electromagnetic
induction ring 4
Joseph Henry (1797 – 1878)
American scientist, Princeton University
professor, and first Secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution.
Discovered selfinduction
Built the largest
electromagnets of
his day
Unit of inductance, L, is the “Henry”

Sign of induced voltage v1 is such that the current i through
an external resistor would be opposite to the current i1 that
produces the flux f1.

LVDT's are often used on clutch actuation
and for monitoring brake disc wear
LVDT's are also used for
sensors in an automotive
active suspension system
