    This document discusses magnetic forces and fields, factors that affect magnetic force, and how motion in a magnetic field creates an induced current. It covers the direction of magnetic fields and forces, how magnetic field strength depends on current and distance from the wire, and how changing magnetic fields can induce currents in conductors based on demonstrations from a PhET simulation. Equations are provided for calculating induced electromotive force and examples are given for determining direction of induced currents in different conductor orientations.

    Direction of induced current


    Calculate the magnitude of the induced emf
    in each situation.

    (a) Loop has a diameter of 12 cm.

    (b) Loop has a diameter of 15 cm.

    (c) Metal rod has a length of 18 cm.

    Is the strength of the magnetic field increasing or decreasing if the induced current is
    flowing clockwise around the loop? Explain your reasoning.

    The loop has a radius of 5 cm, a current of 0.77 A, and a resistance of 20 . What is the
    rate of change of the magnetic field?

    Determine direction of induced current.

    For (c) and (e) the loop is flat on the plane of


    the paper.

    For (b) and (f) the loop is on the plane coming


    out of the paper – and the B field is also
    coming out of the paper.
