Lecture 33. Magnetic Forces on Currents

PHYS 1750: SELECTED TOPICS in PHYSICS
LECTURE 34 and 35. Induction and Maxwell

22.1. Electromotive Force and Induction
1. Electromotive force: electric potential V when no current flows
2. Induction: an emf induced by a changing magnetic flux
3. Magnetic flux Φ = B*A*cos(θ B-A) Webers
22.2. Faraday's Law
1. Faraday's law: V = − N*ΔΦ/Δt
2. Lenz's law: current opposes change in Φ
22.3. Motion leads to voltage
1. V = B*l*v
2. Applications: railguns, tape recorders
23.1.Maxwell's Equations
1. ∑ ΔA*E = Q / εo; sum over surface elements of a volume
2. ∑ ΔA*B = 0; sum over surface elements of a volume
3. ∑ Δl*E|| = - ΔΦB / Δt; sum over line elements of a loop
4. ∑ Δl*B|| = μoεo ΔΦE / Δt + μoI: sum over line elements of a loop
