  1. How can we produce electricity from magnetism? Robert H. Winston Thomas A. Edison High School RET @NEU 2009 August 5, 2009

  2. Turn the directional compass so that its needle is parallel to the wire. • 2. Close the switch to allow the current to flow through the wire for about • 5-10 s. • 3. The compass needle now rotates 90o. • Why do we use directional compass? • Why does the compass needle rotate 90o? This phenomenon is known as the Oersted Effect A flow of charges through a conductor will induce a magnetic field around that conductor. (Why is it defined in terms of charges rather than electrons (e-)?)

  3. http://www.grand-illusions.com/acatalog/lenzs_law.jpg So electricity can produce magnetism. However, can we produce electricity from magnetism? So, what’s the answer? But, “How can we induce a conventional current using magnetism?”

  4. Electricity is the flow of charges around a circuit carrying energy from the battery (or power supply) to components such as lamps and motors The flow of electric charge from the positive (+) terminal of a battery to the negative (-) terminal of the battery is called conventional current.  Positive charges flowing forwards are equivalent to negative charges flowing backwards. The forward motion is conventional  Current while the backward motion is simply electric current

  5. Right Hand Screw Rule Review According to Ampere's law, current (represented by yellow) running in the z direction is causing a B field in the - θ direction (represented by purple).

  6. Think Pair Share—Consult with your neighbor for each of the following: • Write down what you observe • What happens when the magnet moves in and out of the coil? • Why does the galvanometer needle move back-and-forth (passing • through zero)? Describe the ways in which this is different from Oersted’s Effect.

  9. Induction Coil—Check Points • At some time today, someone in your group should write these down for everyone. • When all is “said and done”, be sure to answer these questions. • 1. There is no current in the 1o coil when the switch is off. How does that change when • the switch is turned on? • What happens to the magnetic field around the 1o coil when the switch • is turned on and off? • 3. What happens to the multimeter in the circuit with the 2o coil when the • current in the 1o circuit is flowing? • 4. …when it stops flowing? Why? • Why is likely that when the magnetic field expands or grows around the 1o coil it is also expands or grows around the 2o coil? • How does that shape and size of the magnetic fields around the entire • core change when the switch is turned off? • 7. How does the current that flows in the 1o coil circuit differ from the current in • the 2o coil circuit?” • 8. How does the presence of a whole core affect everything?

  10. When nothing seems to work right, then simulate. Figure-Phet simulation encompassing : (1) Bar Magnets; (2) Pick Up Coil; (3) Electromagnetic Induction; (4)Transformers; (5) Generators Figure-A stepdown transformer

  11. Induction Coil—Redux • At some time today, someone in your group should write these down for everyone. • When all is “said and done”, be sure to answer these questions. • 1. There is no current in the 1o coil when the switch is off. How does that change when • the switch is turned on? • What happens to the magnetic field around the 1o coil when the switch • is turned on and off? • 3.

How does the current that flows in the 1o coil circuit differ from the current in • the 2o coil circuit?” • 8. How does the presence of a whole core affect everything?

  12. Diagram of a generator from Physlet simulation Effect of a commutator on an electrical circuit. Think Pair Share-Physlet • What device is shown on the right? • Why is it given that particular name? • (b) Why might Michael Faraday or Joseph • Henry have marveled at the design of • a generator? • (c) How are the movements of the parts • in a generator different from the • movements of the parts of a • transformer? • (d) How do you think the presence of a • commutator a affects the output of the • current?

  13. Closure: So… how can we explain what happened with the Cu tube demonstration? The physics of Lenz’s law Why did the magnets fall so slowly in comparison to the non-magnets?
