The main emphasis of this chapter can be summed up in one sentence. A Changing
Magnetic Flux induces an emf (electromotive force, or voltage difference). This
statement immediately brings up three questions that we need to answer?
Magnetic Flux
Suppose we have a magnetic field going through a surface. Then the perpendicular
component of the magnetic field going through the surface times the area of the surface
is called the magnetic flux.
Suppose the object in question is a loop of wire. Then the area (A) has a magnitude
equal to the area inside of the wire loop which contains the magnetic flux and a direction
perpendicular to face of the wire loop.
PROBLEM: A loop of wire with a radius of .50 m is placed in a magnetic field of .60
Tesla. What is the flux through the wire loop when the face of the loop is (a)
perpendicular to the magnetic field, (b) parallel to the magnetic field, and (c) at an angle
of 30° to the magnetic field as shown in the figure? (The figure is the view looking
down on the wire loop)
φ = 0° φ = 90° φ = 60°

Φ = (0.60T)(0.79m2)(1) so Φ = 0 Φ = (0.60T)(0.79m2)(0.5)
Φ = .47 Wb Φ = .24 Wb
1. We could change the Area. When we do that we get something called "Motional emf" that
is discussed in the book.
2. We could change φ. We usually do that by rotating a wire loop(s) in a magnetic field.
When we do that we get a generator - which is discussed in the book.
3. We could change B. When we do that we get the phenomena of inductance (leading to
transformers) talked about in the book.
So all of the topics in the first half of chapter 21 are simply results of the fact that a
changing magnetic flux induces an emf and an emf can produce a current.
When we change the magnetic flux we always get an induced emf. In addition, if there
is a closed path for charged particles to flow, we also get a current since emf's lead to current.
Eureka! We've got electric current simply from a changing magnetic flux. The electric current
flows in such a direction as to oppose the change in magnetic flux.
Now we want to make this more quantitative. What is the magnitude of the emf
created when the flux changes? Suppose we have a coil of wire. The emf induced by a
changing the magnetic flux is given by Faraday's Law.
E = -N∆Φ/∆t
It is easiest to use the magnitude of the emf from Faraday's law and determine the
direction of the induced emf from Lenz's Law.
What is the direction of the induced current? According to Lenz's law, the induced
current produces a magnetic field that opposes the change in flux causing the emf. That
is the purpose of the minus sign in Faraday's law. It indicates that the induced emf is
such that the magnetic force F acts to oppose the change in magnetic flux. We'll see
how that works. What matters is the flux inside the wire loop. That is the defined area.

PROBLEM: A coil of 200 turns is wrapped on an 18.0 cm by 18.0 cm frame. The total
resistance of the coil is 2.00Ω. A magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil is
change from 0.500 T to 0 Tesla in 0.800 s. Find the magnitude of the induced emf.
E = IR
Here I am changing the magnetic field, but I could change the area or the angle and
change the flux.

Motional EMF
Another way to look at it is that the magnetic field moves the charges
Second, we see from the above force equations that F/q = vB.
Recall from our chapter on electricity, we defined the electric field as E = F/q, so we can
write this equation can be written as
E = Bv
(Special Note: Motional emf can actually be explained without introducing magnetic
flux and Faraday's Law, so some books use this idea to develop Faraday's law. The
idea of a motional emf, then, can be thought of using Faraday's law, or simply using
ideas the ideas about the changing magnetic flux.)

E = 3.0×10-3 V.
Recall that a little dry cell battery is 1.5 volts, so this is not very much.
This is similar to any problem with motional emf. If you knew the emf in the above figure,
how would you figure out the current in the circuit? What if you were told that there was
no resistor but just a copper wire for a loop? What would you do then?
If we have an emf then we have E = IR and we have power dissipated in the resistor. (We
may be lighting a light bulb). Where is this power coming from? Energy is supposed to be
conserved. Well, the rod doesn't move on its own. It takes energy (or work) to move it. In fact, the
RHR shows that the current in the rod creates a force that wants to stop the rod. F = ILB sinθ. It
takes an external agent to supply the energy/work to light the bulb.
Motional emf is one way to create electricity. But the wire would have to be long, so there is a
better way. It still uses Faraday's Law. Instead of changing the area, we will change the angle φ.
How do we do this? We make a generator. A generator changes mechanical energy (of falling
water, steam, etc.) into electrical energy. It is exactly the opposite of a motor that changes
electrical energy into mechanical energy. Consider the following figure, and look at the two
vertical arms of the wire.
The current direction is given by the right hand rule using v and B. The charges in the
wire feel this force (in the direction of I) which gives rise to the current. The magnitude of
the emf is given by the equation for motional emf that we derived.

E = 2NBLvsinθ
E = 2NBLω(w/2)sinωt
E = NABωsinωt
Recall that the peak current is given by the numbers in front of the sin function, or
Eo=NABω
The current is going back and forth in the wire. If we use slip rings to make the
connection we have an ac generator. With split ring commutators, we have a dc
generator.
This current comes from Lenz's law and acts like a little dipole magnet slowing the
progress of the dropped magnet.
All of these things demonstrate that the currents produced from changing magnetic
fluxes can actually oppose the force creating the changing flux.

Counter-emf of a Motor
I= (V-E)/R.
PROBLEM: Suppose that a motor running at 1200 rpm has a counter emf of 50 V.
What is the counter emf when the motor is running at 2000 rpm?
We know Eo = NABω. Since the magnetic field, the area and the number of wires
doesn't change, then the back emf is only proportional to ω.
E1200/E2000 = ω1200/ω2000
Inductance
We have talked about motional emf and generators as examples of changing magnetic
fluxes, changing A and φ, respectively. Now we talk about changing B. What happens when
we do that. Look at the figure below.

When we change a current in one coil, this changes the magnetic field in that coil.
The changing magnetic field in the first coil produces a changing magnetic field in the
second coil. That produces an emf in the second coil which causes a current in the
second coil. This is called mutual inductance since the changing current in the first coil
induces a current in the second coil. The flux in the second coil is proportional to the
current in the first coil. The proportionality constant is called the mutual inductance.
E 2 = -M∆I1/∆t
Also, as current increases in a coil itself, the flux changes and an emf is produced. This
is called self-inductance. (Same derivation with L used).
L = N∆Φ/∆I = N∆(BA)/∆I
L = N∆(µoNIA)/∆I l
L = NµoNA∆I/∆I l = µoN2A /l
Where does it all end? A single solenoid has only self-inductance. Two of them have
self-inductance and mutual-inductance. Always remember that something has to drive
the system. Usually one of the inductors is connected to an ac or dc source and is driving the
system. But both are always opposing any change in flux.
Finally, there is energy stored in an inductor. It takes work to establish current in the
http://faculty.salisbury.edu/~jwhoward/Physics123/html/ch21.htm 4/19/2007
ch21 Page 10 of 13
conductor since Lenz's Law says that the inductor doesn't want to add current. Again,
like with capacitors, deriving the equation requires calculus.
For a solenoid:
Energy = (1/2µo)B2A l
We can generalize this to the energy stored in any magnetic field. We usually write this
as the energy density (u) which is the energy per volume.
u = (1/2µo)B2
Transformers
E 2 = -N2∆Φ/∆t
E 1 = -N1∆Φ/∆t.
Transformers are designed so that the same flux goes through both coils so ∆Φ/∆t is the
same.
If the secondary has more turns it is a step up transformer, and if it has less turns it is a
step down transformer. Transformers change voltage easily. This is one of the principle
reasons it is preferred over dc. They only work for ac current.
http://faculty.salisbury.edu/~jwhoward/Physics123/html/ch21.htm 4/19/2007
ch21 Page 11 of 13
So if the voltage is stepped up, the current is stepped down. Note the inverse relationship
here.
PROBLEM: The input to the primary coil of a transformer is 120 V while the current in the
secondary coil is 0.10 A. When 60.0 W of power are delivered to the circuit attached to the
secondary coil, what is the voltage across this coil?
If the primary coil has 20 turns, how many does the secondary coil have?
Transformers are used to transfer power from the power company to homes.
The resistance between the points is constant. Since power lost in a resistor is
I2R, we try to minimize I when transferring electricity over a long way. So the
power company steps up voltage (lowering the current) at the place where
electricity is produced and steps it down (raising the current) when they want to use it. There is a
transformer sitting outside of your house.
PROBLEM: Suppose 10 MW of power is being transported over a power line that has
a resistance of 0.200 Ω. How much power is lost along the line if the voltage of the
line is (a) 120 V, (b) 24,000 V?
(a) P = IV
I = 8.3×104 A

P = 3.5 W
Capacitors in ac Circuits
1. In a dc circuit, capacitors do not allow current through, but in an ac circuit they do.
2. The capacitor affects the circuit in two ways
a. The phase of the current changes through a capacitor.
b. The resistance of the capacitor (capacitive reactance) changes with different
frequencies.
VR = IR = IXc
(b) Then the capacitive reactance is halved, and the current doubles.
