FB  qv  B
An electron in the conductor
experiences a force downward.
eV
The electrons in the
bar will move toward
the bottom of the bar.
F
This creates an electric field in the bar and results in a
potential difference between the top and bottom of the bar.

What if the bar were placed across conducting rails (in red)
so that there is a closed loop for the electrons to follow?

In this circuit, the electrons flow clockwise;
the current is counterclockwise.

Using the right hand rule, the force on the bar is directed
to the left.
7
To maintain a constant EMF, the rod must be towed to the
right with constant speed. An external agent must do work
on the bar. (Energy conservation)

§20.2 Electric Generators
A coil of wire is spun in a magnetic field. This produces
an EMF and also a current; both vary with time. (ACalternating current)
An energy source is needed to turn the wire coil. Examples
include burning coal or natural gas to produce steam; falling
water.
9
The EMF produced by an AC generator is:
 t    0 sin t
In the United States and Canada 0 = 170 volts and f =
/2 = 60 Hz.
10
§20.3 Faraday’s Law
Moving a conductor through a B-field will generate an EMF.
Another way to generate an EMF is to place a stationary
conductor in a B-field that varies with time.
11
The magnetic flux is proportional to the number of B-field
lines that cross a given area.

The unit of magnetic flux is

 B
Faraday’s Law:    N
t
An induced EMF in a “coil” of N loops is due to a changing
magnetic flux.
Ways to induce an EMF:
1. Vary the magnetic field.
2. Vary the area of the coil.
3. Change the angle between B and A.
13
§20.4 Lenz’s Law
The direction of induced EMFs and currents always oppose
the change in flux that produced them.
That is, the induced I (and thus induced B) tries
to keep the total flux through the loop constant.
14
Example: Towing the bar to the right produced an induced
current that was CCW. What is the direction of the induced
magnetic field?

The induced B is out of the page to maintain the flux
originally through the loop before the bar started to move
to the right (the area of the loop is increasing).
15
Example (text problem 20.15): A long straight wire carrying
a steady current is in the plane of a circular loop of wire.
(a) If the loop of wire is moved closer to the wire, what is
the direction of the induced current in the wire loop?
I
Wire loop
There is a magnetic field into the page at the location of the
loop. As the loop gets closer to the wire there is an increase
in flux. To negate this increase in flux, the induced B-field
must point out of the page. This requires a CCW current.
16
§20.6 Transformers
Wrap an iron
core with wire.
Primary
coil
Secondary
coil
Apply a varying voltage to the primary coil. This causes a
changing magnetic flux in the secondary coil.

Since the flux through the coils is the same
 1 N1

 2 N2
The “turns ratio” gives
the ratio of the EMFs.
Depending on the turns ratio, a transformer can be used to
step-up or step-down a voltage.
The rate that power is supplied to both coils is the same
 1 I 2 N1

 2 I1 N 2
18
Example (text problem 20.34): The primary coil of a
transformer has 250 turns and the secondary coil has 1000
turns. An AC voltage is sent through the primary. The EMF
of the primary is 16.0 V. What is the EMF in the secondary?

§20.7 Eddy Currents
If a conductor is subjected to a changing magnetic flux, a
current will flow. (This includes sheets of metal, etc.)
20
Consider a metal plate that swings through a magnetic field.

field into the page
created by a magnet.


21
As the plate swings through the region of magnetic field,
some regions of the plate are entering the B-field (increasing
flux), and other regions of the plate are leaving the B-field
(decreasing flux). There will be induced currents in the
conductor called eddy currents.
The eddy currents dissipate energy (according to I2R); this
results in the damping of the amplitude of the metal sheet.
22
§20.9 Mutual- and Self-Inductance
A variable current
I1 flows in coil 1.
Coil 1
Coil 2
I1 then induces a
current in coil 2.
The flux (21) through coil 2 due to coil 1 is N 2 21  I1.
23
Writing this as an equality,
N221  MI1
Where M is the mutual inductance. It depends only on
constants and geometrical factors. The unit of inductance is
the Henry (1H = 1Vs/A).

Self-inductance occurs when a current carrying coil induces
an EMF in itself.
The definition of self-inductance (L) is
N  LI .
25
Example (text problem 20.51): The current in a 0.080 Henry
solenoid increases from 20.0 mA to 160.0 mA in 7.0 s. Find
the average EMF in the solenoid during that time interval.

§20.10 LR Circuits
An inductor
and resistor
are connected
in series to a
battery.
As with an RC circuit, the current in the circuit varies
with time.
28
I
.
The voltage drop across an inductor is given by  L  L
t
When an inductor is “charging” (the energy stored is
increasing) the current in the circuit is:

I (t )  I f 1  et /

Where  = L/R is the time constant for the circuit and
If = b/R maximum current in the circuit.
29
Applying Kirchhoff’s loop rule to the circuit gives the EMF
in the inductor as:
 L   b  IR   b e t /
30
Plots of L(t) and I(t) for this LR circuit:
31
For a “discharging” inductor,
I (t )  I 0 e
 t /
where I0 is the current in
the inductor when t = 0.
The LR circuit time constant  plays the same role as in
an RC circuit.
