Motional emf

v
A loop moves towards a magnet S N
 a current is induced.

Cause: Magnetic force on the moving charges in the loop: F = qv  B


Work: (
W =  F  dl =  q v  B  dl )
If this was an electric force, the corresponding emf would be

=

 F  dl

Motional emf (
 =  v  B  dl ) Note: This does not
come from an electric
field.
Transformer and motional E.M.F
Transformer emf
• A time-varying magnetic field links a stationary circuit to generate
emf
• The emf is generated by an electric force due to a changing magnetic
field
• The Maxwell–Faraday equation describes the transformer emf

Motional emf
• A moving conductor within a stationary magnetic field generates
emf
• The emf is generated by a magnetic force on a moving wire
• The Lorentz force describes the motional emf
Displacement current
There is not current, but there is a time-changing E = q
electric field between the plates:  0A

 q =  0AE =  0 E

Maxwell proposed to complete Ampere’s law with an


additional “current”: dq d E
ID = = 0
dt dt d E
ID =  0

 B  dl = 0 (I + ID )

In this case, we have ID = I

Faraday’s Law
Faraday's law of induction is a basic law of
electromagnetism predicting how a magnetic field will
interact with an electric circuit to produce an
electromotive force (EMF)—a phenomenon called
electromagnetic induction.

A changing magnetic flux induces an EMF
What is EMF?
 =  E  ds
Looks like potential. It’s a “driving force” for current

Maxwell Equation
• Maxwell equations are compilation of
basic laws of electromagnetics.
• These basic laws are Gauss law, the
Ampere’s circuital law and the
Faraday’s law.
• These equations describes the world
of electromagnetics.
• Some of these laws were directly
used and some were modified by
Maxwell while compiling the James clerk Maxwell
equations. (scottish physicist)

Gauss Law for magneto statics

The total magnetic flux coming out of a closed surface is equal to the total magnetic
charge(poles) inside the surface.

However, magnetic poles always found in pairs.

Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction
•Biot savart law tells us that the magnetic field is produced by a current.
•Whether the reverse is true i.e. whether the magnetic field would produce
electricity.
• Faraday’s experiments demonstrated that the static magnetic field produce no
current but a time varying magnetic field produce a E.M.F. in a close loop causes a
current to flow.
According to Faraday’s law, the net electromotive force (EMF) in a close loop is
equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux ( ( )enclosed by the loop.
