  1. Today’s agenda: Induced emf. You must understand how changing magnetic flux can induce an emf, and be able to determine the direction of the induced emf. Faraday’s Law. You must be able to use Faraday’s Law to calculate the emf induced in a circuit. Lenz’s Law. You must be able to use Lenz’s Law to determine the direction induced current, and therefore induced emf. Generators. You must understand how generators work, and use Faraday’s Law to calculate numerical values of parameters associated with generators. Back emf. You must be able to use Lenz’s law to explain back emf.

  2. N S Experimentally… Lenz’s law—An induced emf always gives rise to a current whose magnetic field opposes the change in flux.* I v + - If Lenz’s law were not true—if there were a + sign in Faraday’s law—then a changing magnetic field would produce a current, which would further increase the magnetic field, further increasing the current, making the magnetic field still bigger… *Think of the current resulting from the induced emf as “trying” to maintain the status quo—to prevent change.

  3. …violating conservation of energy and ripping apart the very fabric of the universe…

  4. Practice with Lenz’s Law. In which direction is the current induced in the coil for each situation shown? Practice on your own. In lecture, skip to here. (counterclockwise) (no current)

  5. (counterclockwise) (clockwise)

  6. Rotating the coil about the vertical diameter by pulling the left side toward the reader and pushing the right side away from the reader in a magnetic field that points from right to left in the plane of the page. (counterclockwise)

  7. Faraday’s Law You can use Faraday’s Law (as written above) to calculate the magnitude of the emf (or whatever the problem wants). Then use Lenz’s Law to figure out the direction of the induced current (or the direction of whatever the problem wants). The direction of the induced emf is in the direction of the current that flows in response to the flux change. We usually ask you to calculate the magnitude of the induced emf ( || ) and separately specify its direction. Magnetic flux is not a vector. Like electrical current, it is a scalar. Just as we talk about current direction (even though it is not a vector), we often talk about flux direction (even though it is not a vector). Keep this in mind if your recitation instructor talks about the direction of magnetic flux.
