2. Rail Gun  For each rail  B =  0 I/2  r  B = (4  X10 -7 )(100000) / 2  (0.005)  B = 4 T so sum of B = 8 T  Force on conductor:  F = BIL sin   F = (8)(100000)(0.01) sin 90  F = 8000 N I I X B field from each rail F

3. Magnetic Fields and Current  We have already seen that:   There should be a parallel effect where magnetic fields can produce currents   Constant magnetic fields do not produce currents   For the area of interest there must either more or less magnetic field with time

4. Magnetic Flux  Consider a region with a magnetic field   We will define the magnetic flux as the component of the B field that passes through a region times the area of the region, or:  = BA cos    Unit of flux is the Weber (Wb), 1 Wb = 1 T m 2    = 0 means face on   = 90 means edge on

5. Magnetic Flux

6. Flux Through a Loop   What is force on particle?   aligned with B, F= 0  Same is true for flux  if  = 0,  = BA = maximum flux  if  = 90,  = 0  =BA cos 0 =BA  = BA cos 90 = 0

7. Induction  What happens if you change the flux through a loop of wire?  Connect a loop to an ammeter and move a magnet through it   Current stops when the movement stops   Usually means something (either the loop or the magnet) must be moving

8. Faraday’s Law  We can find the emf from Faraday’s Law:  = -N(  /  t)   To find the emf, we don’t want , but rather how fast  changes   Can write as:  /  t = (  f -  i )/(t f -t i )   /  t is also the slope of a line on a  -t diagram

9. Lenz’s Law   The induced current produces a magnetic field of its own   Lenz’s Law:  The induced current will be in a direction such that the magnetic field it produces will counteract the changes in the original B

10. Induced Current

11. Changing B  Consider a loop in a B field   The induced current flows such that the induced B is in the same direction as the original field   If you increase the flux:  The induced current flows such that the induced B is opposite the original field 

12. Applied Induction  Induction is useful because it links physical motion to electric currents   The moving magnet produces a changing flux   The current thus preserves a record of the motion   Many applications in music

14. Electric Guitar

15. Induction Devices  Microphone   Speaker   Electric guitar  Pickup magnet magnetizes string, the motion of which induces current   Tape recorders and players  The tape is magnetized such that when it passes the tape heads it induces a current

16. How Does Induction Work?   If we move the wire through a B field the electrons now have a velocity   This deflection produces an imbalance of charge 
