21.2 Faraday’s Law of Induction; Lenz’s Law
Minus sign in Faraday’s Law tells us that the
induced emf opposes the original change, ie.
The current produced by an induced emf moves
in a direction such that its magnetic field
opposes the original change in flux. [Lenz’s Law]

Problem Solving using Lenz’s Law
1. Magnetic flux, ΦB:
The magnetic flux
will also change if
the area of the
loop changes.
What direction?
Is Φ B increasing, decreasing, or constant?
2. Induced magnetic field tries to keep the flux constant.
If ΦB is increasing, the induced magnetic field,
BIND, points in the opposite direction.
Similarly, flux will
change if the angle
between the loop and
the field changes.

21.3 EMF Induced in a Moving Conductor (21-3 and Ex 21-8)
Here is another way to induce an emf in a conductor…
A conducting rod moves
to the right with velocity,
v, perpendicular to a
magnetic field, B.
What is the direction of the
induced current in the wire loop?
BIND
If ΦB is decreasing, the induced magnetic field,
BIND, points in the same direction.
3. Direction of the induced current can be determined
using RHR-1.
4. Remember that the external field and the field due
to the induced current are different.

Now there is a continuous
path for the electrons and
the induced emf causes a
current to flow.

But …
the induced current interacts with the magnetic field, producing
a drag force (F=ILB) that resists the motion of the rod.

can flow in any shaped conductor.

21.7 Transformers and Transmission of Power
Up till now we have been changing φB and
inducing a I in a coil.
If we now pass a changing I through a coil,
then the magnetic flux through the coil also
changes.
21.7 Transformers and Transmission of Power
A Transformer is a device for increasing or decreasing ac voltage.
• primary and secondary coil:
interwoven or linked by an iron core.
• Nearly all magnetic flux produced by primary
coil passes through secondary coil.
When an ac voltage is applied to the primary
coil an ac voltage of the same frequency is
induced in the secondary coil.
(21-6)
Can show:
When that changing flux passes through
a 2nd coil, an emf can be induced in the
2nd coil.
This is the basis of a transformer
[rms or peak values]
STEP-UP transformer increases
the voltage (NS > NP)
STEP-DOWN transformer
decreases the voltage (NP > NS)
Transformers play an important role in the transmission of electricity

21.9 Self Inductance and Inductors
21.9 Self Inductance and Inductors
Self inductance
What is an inductor?
The induced emf is proportional to the rate of change of
the current and it opposes the change (Lenz’s Law):
Basically its just a coil of wire
L = self-inductance
Units: henry, H.
1 H = 1 V·s/A = 1 Ω·s.
But, when this coil of wire is put in a circuit it has interesting
effects because of Faraday’s Law and induced emf.
If I changes in a single coil, then φB changes and an emf is
induced in that same coil. This is known as self inductance

21.10 Energy Stored in a Magnetic Field
We saw in section 17-9, that energy can be stored in
an electric field ( uE = 12 ε0 E2 ).
Energy can also be stored in a magnetic field,
for example in an inductor or solenoid.
The energy density of the magnetic field is given by:
