Electromagnatic Induction
Electromagnatic Induction
Lenz's Law:
The induced EMF resulting from a changing magnetic flux has a polarity that leads to
an induced current whose direction is such that the induced magnetic field opposes the
original flux change.
Hold out your left hand with forefinger, second finger and thumb at right angle to one
another. If the fore finger represents the direction of the magnetic field (flux) and the
second finger that of the current, then thumb gives the direction of the motion of the
conductor.
Fleming Left Hand rule is mainly applicable for electric motor and Fleming Right Hand
rule is mainly applicable for electric generator.
