<<< Electromagnetic Induction and Faraday's Law>>>


   

"I am Michael Faraday"

Discovery: Michael Faraday (1831) - Electromagnetic induction phenomenon When bringing a magnet closer to or away from a coil, an induced current is generated in the coil That is, an induced potential difference
arises due to the effect of the changing magnetic field on the coil And this electric current is generated in a conducting coil when the magnetic field around it changes
Reason: The movement of the magnet (bringing it closer or away) leads to a change in magnetic flux through the coil
Separately, the scientist Henry researched generating an induced current through changing the field penetrating the coil




Useful information: Electromagnet


From our previous knowledge, passing current through a coil turns the coil into an electromagnet

By applying the right-hand grip rule, we determine the direction of the field


The thumb points to the direction of the field inside the coil (points to the north pole)

Note the north pole rotates current counterclockwise and the south pole rotates current clockwise provided you look at the coil from the side you want to determine its pole



Electromagnetic induction and Faraday's experiment
The scientist Michael Faraday practically found that when moving a conductor within an external magnetic field, an electric current is induced in this conductor Note approaching the magnet to the coiled wire and forming a field opposite to the cause to reduce the change in flux Note moving away the magnet from the coiled wire and forming a field similar to the cause to reduce the change in flux Faraday demonstrated through the experiment that the average induced electromotive force generated in a specific conductor equals the rate of temporal change in magnetic flux And if the wire is coiled, multiply by the number of turns
