Generally, a cell delivers a certain voltage that is a function of what chemical reactions are
taking place to generate the voltage. The purpose of an electric cell is to convert chemical energy into
electrical energy. To get increased voltage one must add cells in series. The primary difference between
a battery and a cell is a battery can be composed of a number of cells. A cell can be a battery. For
example, the 9-volt batteries have 6 individual cells inside them.
A simple cell comprises two dissimilar conductors (electrodes) in an electrolyte. Such a cell is
shown in Figure 1, comprising copper and zinc electrodes. An electric current is found to flow between
the electrodes. Other possible electrode pairs exist, including zinc-lead and zinc-iron. The electrode
potential (i.e. the p.d. measured between the electrodes) varies for each pair of metals. By knowing the
e.m.f. of each metal with respect to some standard electrode the e.m.f. of any pair of metals may be
determined.

If an electric pressure or voltage is applied across any material there is a tendency for
electrons to move in a particular direction. This movement of free electrons, known as drift,
constitutes an electric current flow. Thus current is the rate of movement of charge and is
measured in ampere.
The unit used to measure the quantity of electrical charge Q is called the coulomb C
(where 1 coulomb = 6.24 x 1018 electrons).
Generally, if I is the current in amperes and t the time in seconds during which the
current flows, then I x t represents the quantity of electrical charge in coulombs.

In its most elementary state a capacitor consists of two metal plates separated by a
certain distance d, in between the plates lies a dielectric material with dielectric constant =εoε,
where εo is the dielectric of air.
The dielectric material allows for charge to accumulate between the capacitor plates.
Air (actually vacuum) has the lowest dielectric value of εo = 8.854 x 10-12 Farads/meter. All other
materials have higher dielectric values, since they are higher in density and can therefore
accumulate more charge.
Clearly, the larger the area of the plate the more charge can be accumulated and hence
the larger the capacitance. Also, note that as the distance d increases the Capacitance
decreases since the charge cannot be contained as 'densely' as before.
By applying a voltage to a capacitor and measuring the charge on the plates, the ratio of
the charge Q to the voltage V will give the capacitance value of the capacitor and is therefore
given as: C = Q/V this equation can also be re-arranged to give the more familiar formula for the
quantity of charge on the plates as: Q = C x V.

Figure 5
Mathematically, the capacitance of the device relates the voltage difference between
the plates and the charge accumulation associated with this voltage:
Capacitors which obey the relationship of equation (1) are linear capacitors, since the
potential difference between the conductive surfaces is linearly related to the charge on the
surfaces. Note that the charges on the right and left plate of the capacitor in Figure 5 are equal
and opposite. Thus, if we increase the charge on one plate, the charge on the other plate must
decrease by the same amount. This is consistent with our previous assumption electrical circuit
elements cannot accumulate charge, and current entering one terminal of a capacitor must
leave the other terminal of the capacitor.

When a conductor is moved across a magnetic field so as to cut through the lines of
force (or flux, an electromotive force (e.m.f) is produced in the conductor. If the conductor
forms part of a closed circuit then the e.m.f produced causes an electric current to flow round
the circuit. Hence an e.m.f is induced in the conductor as a result of its movement across the
magnetic field. This effect is known a ‘electromagnetic induction’.
6.3.3 Mathematical relationship between the induced e.m.f and the network
Faraday noted that the e.m.f induced in a loop is proportional to the rate of change of
magnetic flux through it:
*Notice the negative sign is the induced current will now produce an induced magnetic
filed. The direction of that magnetic field will be opposite to the direction the flux is
changing.
Inductance is the name given to the property of a circuit whereby there is an e.m.f
induced into the circuit by change of flux linkages produced by a current change.
When the e.m.f is induced in the same circuit as that in which the current is changing,
the property is called self-inductance, L.
Induced e.m.f is the product of self-inductance and the rate of change in current

UNIT 7 MAGNETIC CIRCUIT, ELECTROMAGNETISM AND ELECTOMAGNETIC INDUCTION
The direction of a line of flux is from the north pole to the south pole on the outside of
the magnet and is then assumed to continue through the magnet back to the point at which it
emerged at the north pole. Thus such lines of flux always form complete closed loops or paths,
they never intersect and always have a definite direction. The laws of magnetic attraction and
repulsion can be demonstrated by using two bar magnets. In Figure 1(a), with unlike poles
adjacent, attraction takes place. Lines of flux are imagined to contract and the magnets try to
pull together. The magnetic field is strongest in between the two magnets, shown by the lines of
flux being close together. In Figure 1(b), with similar poles adjacent (i.e. two north poles),
repulsion occurs, i.e. the two north poles try to push each other apart, since magnetic flux lines
running side by side in the same direction repel.

effects of the magnetic force produced by the magnet can be detected. A magnetic field cannot
be seen, felt, smelt or heard and therefore is difficult to represent. Michael Faraday suggested

Hysteresis is the ‘lagging’ effect of flux density B whenever there are changes in the
magnetic field strength H. When an initially unmagnetized ferromagnetic material is subjected
to a varying magnetic field strength H, the flux density B produced in the material varies as
shown in Figure 4, the arrows indicating the direction of the cycle. Figure 4 is known as a
hysteresis loop.
The area of a hysteresis loop varies with the type of material. The area, and thus the
energy loss, is much greater for hard materials than for soft materials.

Magnetic field
If the current direction is reversed, the direction of the lines of flux is also reversed. The
effect on both the iron filings and the compass needle disappears when the current is switched
off. The magnetic field is thus produced by the electric current. The magnetic flux produced has
the same properties as the flux produced by a permanent magnet. If the current is increased the
strength of the field increases and, as for the permanent magnet, the field strength decreases as
we move away from the current-carrying conductor.

Magnetic field is surrounding a conductor that carries current, thus the form of
magnetic field that surrounds a straight conductor is in concentric cylindrical (Figure 6(a)).
The direction of magnetic field flux depends on the direction of current that flows in the
conductor. Figure 6(b) shows the direction of flux, which is according to clock-wise when current
enters the conductor (sign as “+” at the center of conductor). Meanwhile, Figure 6(c) shows the
opposite case, where the direction of current is exit from the conductor (sign as “•”, where it
will produce magnetic field flux according to anti-clockwise).

Example
Draw magnetic field that exist when two conductors carrying current are put near to each other,
where:-
i. Current flows in the same direction on both of conductors.
ii. Current flows in the opposite direction between both conductors.

A magnetic field set up by a long coil, or solenoid, is shown in Figure 7(a) and is seen to
be similar to that of a bar magnet. If the solenoid is wound on an iron bar, as shown in Figure
7(b), an even stronger magnetic field is produced, the iron becoming magnetized and behaving
like a permanent magnet.

The direction of the magnetic field produced by the current I in the solenoid may be
found by either of three methods:
a) Compass
Figure 8
b) Screw rule
States that ‘If a normal right-hand thread screw is screwed along the conductor
in the direction of the current, the direction of rotation of the screw is in the
direction of the magnetic field.’
Figure 9
c) The grip rule
States that ‘if the coil is gripped with the right hand, with the fingers pointing in
the direction of the current, then the thumb, outstretched parallel to the axis of
the solenoid, points in the direction of the magnetic field inside the solenoid.’

If the conductor moves at an angle θ to the magnetic field (instead of at 900 as assumed
0
above) then
E = Blv sin θ Volt
Example 1
A conductor 300 mm long moves at a uniform speed of 4 m/s at right-angles to a uniform magnetic field
of flux density 1.25 T. Determine the current flowing in the conductor when
(a) its ends are open-circuited,
(b) its ends are connected to a load of 20 Ω resistance.
Solution
When a conductor moves in a magnetic field it will have an e.m.f. induced in it but this e.m.f. can only
produce a current if there is a closed circuit.
Induced e.m.f. E = Blv =(1.25)(300/1000)(4) = 1.5 V

(a) If the ends of the conductor are open circuited no current will flow even though 1.5 V has been
induced.
(b) From Ohm’s law, I = E/R =1.5/20 = 0.075 A or 75 mA
Example 2
At what velocity must a conductor 75 mm long cut a magnetic field of flux density 0.6 T if an e.m.f. of 9 V
is to be induced in it? Assume the conductor, the field and the direction of
motion are mutually perpendicular.
Solution
Induced e.m.f. E = Blv, hence velocity v = E/Bl
Hence v = 9/(0.6)(75x10-3)=(9 x 103)/(0.6 x 75)= 200 m/s
Example 3
A conductor moves with a velocity of 15 m/s at an angle of (a) 90°, (b) 60° and (c) 30° to a magnetic field
produced between two square-faced poles of side length 2 cm. If the flux
leaving a pole face is 5 μWb, find the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. in each case.
Solution
v = 15 m/s; length of conductor in magnetic field, l = 2 cm = 0.02 m;
A = 2 x 2 cm2 = 4 x 10-4 m2, Φ = 5 x 10-6 Wb
(a) E90 = Blv sin 90° =(Φ/A)lv sin 90 =(5 X 10-6)(0.02)(15)(1)/(4x10-4) = 3.75 mV
(b) E60 = Blv sin 60° = E90 sin 60° = 3.75 sin 60° = 3.25 mV
(c) E30 = Blv sin 30° = E90 sin 30° = 3.75 sin 30° = 1.875 mV
