Electromagnetic Induction
Faradays Law
On the table you will find a bar magnet and a coil.
The coil is connected to channel A on the Pasco
Interface so that we can monitor the voltage across
the coil. Turn on the interface and PC. Start
DataStudio and configure the system by clicking and
dragging the analog sensor plug icon to the channel A
input. Choose the voltage sensor and connect to
channel A. Next select the graph display icon and
drag it to the channel A icon. Set the time scale
maximum to 10 sec. and the voltage scale maximum
to 1.0 V.

Do not withdraw the bar magnetic but stop the bar
magnetic in the center of the coil after thrusting it in.

Now lets do the experiment. Start the recording and
thrust the bar magnet into the center of the coil with
the north pole toward the coil. Do not withdraw the
magnet and stop the recording. Observe the
deflection of the graph, both the magnitude and the
sign. How does your prediction compare with the
measurements? Draw the results on the axis above

In order to understand Faradays law we need to
understand the concept of magnetic flux. Write the
definition of magnetic flux.

The magnetic flux is exactly like the electric flux we
studied in Gausss law. The flux is defined in terms
of a vector area dA. Describe the magnitude and
direction of this vector.
The magnitude is the common area and the
direction is normal to the area.

Electromagnetic Induction
Lenzs Law
The direction of the emf and
thus the current is given by
Lenzs law. The statement in
bold in the center of page 789
is a statement of Lenzs law.
Use this to find the direction
of the current. If you are
looking down on the loop
from above, is the current
flowing clockwise or counter
clockwise? Explain.

Electromagnetic Induction
Lenzs Law
The magnetic is moving
away from the coil so the
magnetic field is
decreasing, thus the
current is in a direction to
off-set the decrease.
The magnetic is
moving toward the coil
so the magnetic field is
increasing, thus the
current is in a direction
to off-set the increase.

Does it make a difference if it is the magnetic moving

or the coil? This was a major point in Einsteins

Now do the experiment. Do not let the bar magnet
hit the floor. The bar magnet will lose its magnetism
if it hits the floor. Draw the results on the axis above.
Use a solid line. How did you do? If your
prediction was different discuss the results to make
sure you all understand.

Now lets do another example of Faradays law. What
happens when you pull a coil out of a magnetic field?
Use the power supply and connect it to the large coil
on the table. Turn the voltage knob to zero (counter
clockwise) and turn on the supply. Make sure the
current limit switch is on high and the current knob
all the way clockwise to full range. Now increase the
voltage to 30 V and the current should be about 0.5 A.
We are using this large coil to create a magnetic
field. Turn the supply off.
What direction is the field pointing when the supply
is on? Use the current direction to find the field
direction.
