ELECTROMAGNETIC
FARADAYS LAW
I. INTRODUCTION
A changing magnetic field can produce a potential difference, often called
an emf, across a coil of wire. If the coil is part of a closed circuit, a current is
induced in the circuit. The changing magnetic field can be produced by relative
motion between a coil and a permanent magnet or by changing the current in one
coil that is placed near another coil. Effects of these kinds are known as
electromagnetic induction and can be described by Faradays law and Lenzs law.
Motors, generators, and transformers are a few of the many common devices
whose operation is explained by the laws of electromagnetic induction. In this
experiment, a coil passes through a magnetic field, causing a change in the
magnetic flux in the coil.
II. PURPOSE
1. Verify faradays laws of electromagnetic induction
2. Observe factors which affect to magnitude of induced emf
3. Identify induced emf in the coil and the effect of the induced current on
the coils motion

Where = B dA = BA for a magnetic field (B) which is constant over the
area (A) and perpendicular to the area. N is the number of turns of wire in the coil.
The negative sign in Faraday's law indicates that the induced emf and the change
in flux have opposite signs. This arises from significant physical phenomena,
referred to as Lenz' Law: the induced current is
Always in a direction that opposes the change of flux that created it. That is,
the induced current tends to keep the original magnetic flux from changing by
creating a magnetic field in a direction that opposes the change in flux.

CHAPTER II
MAGNET
MAGNETIC FORCE ON WIRE
I. INTRODUCTION
Magnets are mounted on an iron yoke and placed on a balance (resolution of
at least 0.01g). One of the conducting paths is suspended between the magnets.
The balance is used to measure the mass of the magnets and yoke prior to any
current passing through the conducting path. Current is then passed through the
conducting path, producing a force. The change in reading on the balance can be
converted to find the magnetic force between the conductor and magnetic field.
Conductors of different length are included to measure the effect of length
on magnetic force. Magnetic field can be varied by changing the number of
magnets in the yoke. The power source is used to change the current supplied to
the conductor. The Current Balance Accessory includes all the components
needed to test the effect of angle on magnetic force.
II. THEORY
A current carrying wire in a magnetic field experiences a force that is
usually referred to as a magnetic force. The magnitude and direction of this force
depend on four variables: The magnitude and direction of the current (I); the
strength of the magnetic field (B); the length of the wire (L); and the angle
between the field and the wire (q).
This magnetic force can be described mathematically by the vector cross
product:
Fm = IL x B
Or in scalar form,
Fm = ILBsin
Using the equipment included in the Magnetic Forces on Wires Experiment,
all four variables (I, B, L, and q) can be varied while measuring the resulting
magnetic force.

MAGNETIC FIELDS COIL
I. INTRODUCTION
The magnetic fields of various coils are plotted versus position as the
Magnetic Field Sensor is passed through the coils, guided by a track. The position
is recorded by a string attached to the Magnetic Field Sensor that passes over the
Rotary Motion Sensor pulley to a hanging mass.
It is particularly interesting to compare the field from Helmholtz coils at the
proper separation of the coil radius to the field from coils separated at less than or
more than the coil radius. The magnetic field inside a solenoid can be examined in
both the radial and axial directions.

SNELLS LAW
I. BASIC THEORY
Willebrord Snellius (15801626), the law was first accurately
described by the scientist Ibn Sahlat the Baghdad court in 984. In the
manuscript On Burning Mirrors and Lenses, Sahl used the law to derive lens
shapes that focus light with no geometric aberrations.
Snell's law states that the ratio of the sine of the angles of incidence
and refraction is equivalent to the ratio of phase velocities in the two media, or
equivalent to the reciprocal of the ratio of the indices of refraction:

VII. PROCEDURE
1. Experiment 1: Reversibility
a. Equipment:
Ray Table
D-Shaped Lens
Light Source
b. Purpose.
In Trial 1 of this experiment, you will determine the relationship
between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction for light passing
from air into a more optically dense medium (the acrylic of the D-shaped
lens). In Trial 2, you will determine whether the same relationship holds
between the angles of incidence and refraction for light passing out of a
more optically dense medium back into air. That is to say, if the light is
traveling in the opposite direction through the lens, is the law of refraction
the same or different? By comparing the results of both trials, you will find
the answer to this question. In Figure below, notice that refraction occurs
only at the flat surface of the D-shaped lens, not at the curved surface.
c. Setup
1. Place the light source in ray-box mode on a flat tabletop. Turn the wheel
to select a single ray.
2. Put the ray table in front of the light source so the ray from the light
source crosses the exact center of the ray table.
3. Put the D-shaped lens on the ray table exactly centered in the marked
outline.

observe the corresponding angle of refraction (r1) and record it in the
second column of the table.
Trial 2
1. Copy all of the values in the second column to the third column of the
table. (In other words, the angles of refraction that you observe in Trial 1
will be the angles of incidence that you use in Trial 2.)
2. Turn the ray table so the incoming ray enters the lens through the curved
surface.
3. For the angles of incidence (i2) that you wrote in the third column of the
table, observe the corresponding angles of refraction (r2) and record them

b. Purpose
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the index of refraction of
the acrylic trapezoid. For rays entering the trapezoid, you will measure the
angles of incidence and refraction and use Snells Law to calculate the index
of refraction.
c. Procedure
1. Place the light source in ray-box mode on a sheet of white paper. Turn the
wheel to select a single ray.
2. Place the trapezoid on the paper and position it so the ray passes through
the parallel sides as shown in Figure
3. Mark the position of the parallel surfaces of the trapezoid and trace the
incident and transmitted rays. Indicate the incoming and the outgoing rays
with arrows in the appropriate directions. Carefully mark where the rays
enter and leave the trapezoid.
4. Remove the trapezoid and draw a line on the paper connecting the points
where the rays entered and left the trapezoid. This line represents the ray
inside the trapezoid.
5. Choose either the point where the ray enters the trapezoid or the point
where the ray leaves the trapezoid. At this point, draw the normal to the
surface.
6. Measure the angle of incidence (i) and the angle of refraction with a
protractor. Both of these angles should be measured from the normal.
Record the angles in the first row of Table below

incidence. Repeat these steps again with a third angle of incidence. The
