9. 9 Magnetic Induction Magnetic Flux: the “amount of B-field through an area” Stronger B-field means more field passes through Larger area means more field passes through Different orientations permit more field to pass through How should B-field be oriented for maximum magnetic field to pass through the loop?

10. 10 Inducing current Imagine a region with a magnetic field away from you in some regions (into the screen) and zero in other regions, as shown below. Right wire is blue wire. Left wire is red wire. At t=0, loop is outside the field. Our goal: 1)What happens as the loop enters the magnetic field? 2)What happens while the loops moves within B. 3)What happens as the loop exits the magnetic field? 4)Connecting to chaning fields.

11. 11 Applying RHR2: 0) Before we enter the field: Describe the force at the instant shown on positive charges in the blue wire: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other Why?

12. 12 Applying RHR2: 1) Entering the field: Describe the force at the instant shown on positive charges in the blue wire: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other Why?

13. 13 Applying RHR2: 1) Entering the field: Repeat for red, top and bottom wires: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other Why?

14. 14 Applying RHR2: 1) Entering the field: Draw the current the results from the forces we just describes as loop enters field. Draw the magnetic field from the induced current. Would this analysis change if I had asked for the forces on the electrons?

15. 15 Applying RHR2: 2) Within the field: Describe the force at the instant shown on positive charges in the blue wire: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other Why?

17. 17 Applying RHR2: 2) Within the field: Draw the current the results from the forces we just describes as loop moves within field. Draw the magnetic field from the induced current. Would this analysis change if I had asked for the forces on the electrons?

18. 18 Applying RHR2: 3) Leaving the field: Describe the force at the instant shown on positive charges in the blue wire: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other

19. 19 Applying RHR2: 3) Leaving the field: Repeat for red, top and bottom wires: 1)Left 2)Right 3)Up 4)Down 5)Into Screen 6)Out of screen 7)Zero 8)Other

20. 20 Applying RHR2: 3) Leaving the field: Draw the current the results from the forces we just describes as loop leaves field. Draw the magnetic field from the induced current. Would this analysis change if I had asked for the forces on the electrons?

21. 21 Connecting to changes in amount of field through loop In which of the previous times was the amount of field passing through the loop changing? a)Before entering field b)While entering field c)Within field d)Leaving field In which cases was a current induced?

22. 22 Changing fields induces a current that creates a field Induced current makes a field opposite to the change in amount of field through loop: 1) Entering field titi No field tftf Ext field into page I ind 3) Leaving field titi No field tftf Ext field into page Induced field out of page I ind

23. 23 Consequences of changing magnetic fields Anything that changes the flux through a conductor causes a current to flow in the conductor. Before: cause of current flow is a voltage difference (like from a battery). New model: changing magnetic flux induces voltage differences (which cause induced currents and induced magnetic fields)

26. 26 A vertical wave traveling through a vertical fence passes unimpeded. The second fence also lets the wave pass. If we place the second fence with horizontal slats, the vertical vibrations cannot pass through the fence. Image from http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/GBSSCI/PHYS/CLASS/light/u12l1e.html
