Primary Side: Input voltage | Secondary Side: Output voltage

What are three ways to change magnetic flux?

  1. Changing the magnetic field strength (B). 2. Changing the area (A) of the loop in the field. 3. Changing the angle (θ) between the field and area.

Describe how a motional EMF flashlight works.

A metal bar moves, sweeping area A = lΔx. The increasing area increases magnetic flux (ΦB = ∫ B ⋅ dA = BA). The induced field opposes this. Using RHR #2, the current flows CCW.

How can magnetic flux be changed?

  1. Changing the magnetic field strength (B). 2. Changing the area (A) of the loop in the field. 3. Changing the angle (θ) between the field and area.

Describe how a motional EMF flashlight works.

  1. A magnet moves through a coil of wire. 2. The changing magnetic flux induces an EMF. 3. The EMF drives a current, lighting the bulb.

What is the process of electromagnetic induction?

  1. A changing magnetic field is present. 2. This changing field induces a voltage (EMF). 3. If a closed circuit exists, the EMF drives a current.
