Look at the north pole: here the

magnetic field points to the rightright and

the current points out of the pageout of the page.

The right-hand rule says that the force

must point upup. At the south pole, the

same logic leads to a downwarddownward force.

• Do demo with wire loop in magnetic field B.

(galvanometer demo)• We find that the loop rotates in opposite directions depending on the direction of the current!

A galvanometer takes advantage of the torque on a current loop to measure current; the spring constant is calibrated so the scale reads in amperes. Remember that all analog ammeters use a galvanometer.

Now we can imagine combining some of these effects.

• We know that a current carrying wire produces a magnetic field.• We also know that a current carrying wire feels a force in a magnetic field.• If we have two wires, can we use one wire to produce a magnetic field at the position of the second wire? Yes!• If the second wire carries a current,

then it should feel a force!• Do demo – next slide.

Almost 200 years ago, Michael Faraday looked for evidence that a magnetic field would induce an electric current with this apparatus:

Induced EMF

Do demos about induced currents.

Therefore, a changing magnetic field induces an emf/current.

Faraday’s experiment used a magnetic field that was changing because the current producing it was changing; the previous graphic shows a magnetic field that is changing because the magnet is moving.

Faraday’s Discovery and the Law of Induction

There are many ways to change the magnetic flux through a surface:

• Move the magnet

• Turning current on or off in one loop induces current in another

• Move the loop

• Change the shape (and the area) of the loop

Page 57: PHYS 1110 Lecture 8 Professor Stephen Thornton September 20, 2012.

Answer: C

Nature doesn’t want the magnetic flux to change, so it induces a large current (back emf) to produce a magnetic field. This emf results in the spark across the switch.

Page 58: PHYS 1110 Lecture 8 Professor Stephen Thornton September 20, 2012.

Inductance and Inductors• Faraday’s Law: Changing current

in a circuit will induce emf in that circuit as well as others nearby

• Self-Inductance: Circuit induces emf in itself (source of back emf)

• Mutual Inductance: Circuit induces emf in second circuit

Page 59: PHYS 1110 Lecture 8 Professor Stephen Thornton September 20, 2012.

Inductance magnetic flux depends on current

is called inductance (actually self inductance here).

Switch closed. Inductor opposes magnetic flux change. Induces current to oppose battery current; current rises more slowly.

Mutual InductanceA long thin solenoid of length ℓ and cross-sectional area A contains N1 closely packed turns of wire. Wrapped around it is an insulated coil of N2 turns. All the flux from coil 1 (the solenoid) passes through coil 2. The magnetic flux between the two coils is linked. We call this mutual inductance.
