Mutual Induction is the phenomenon of
production of induced emf (or induced
current) in one coil due to a charge of
current in neighbouring coil.

 Induced Electric Field
Whenever Magnetic field is changing, an induced
Electric field is produced in any closed path
The induced Electric Field(due to changing
magnetic field) is different from the Electric
Field we studied in Coulomb’s Law.
Unlike Electrostatic Field, the lines of
induced Electric Field form Closed loops.
Q) If inward magnetic field (as shown) is increasing. Which of
the following best represent induced Electric Field lines
 EDDY CURRENTS
1. We know that changing Magnetic Field can produce
induced Electric Field & thus induced current in
closed loops.

2. Eddy Currents are loops of electric current induced

within conductor by a changing magnetic field in the
conductor.
3. The term eddy means ‘a circular movement of
water’ or ‘whirlpool’. Since these currents looks like
eddy, hence the name eddy current.

4. These currents were discovered by Focault in 1895,

so eddy currents are known as Focault Currents.
Experiment to demonstrate eddy currents
1. Damping of Pendulum
Undesirable effects of Eddy Currents
1. Eddy currents are produced inside the iron cores of
the rotating armatures of electric motors and
dynamos, and also in the cores of transformers,
which experience flux changes.
2. Eddy currents cause unnecessary heating and
wastage of power.
3. The heat produced by eddy currents may even
damage the insulation of coils.
Minimisation
1. The eddy currents can be reduced by laminated
core.
2. The planes of the sheets are placed perpendicular to
the direction of the currents that would be setup by
the emf induced in the material.
3. The insulation between the sheets then offers high
resistance to the induced emf and the eddy currents
are substantially reduced.
