26 - Electromagneti induction Flashcards
Define magnetic flux density
the force experienced by a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic fields per unit length, per unit current, when the current is perpendicular to the directions of the fields
Magnetic flux
the product of magnetic flux density normal to a circuit and the cross-sectional area of the circut
Magentic flux equation
ϕ = BA
Define magnetic flux linkage
the product of magnetic flux and the number of turns
Magnetic flux linkage equation
Magnetic flux linkage = ϕN
Magnetic flux linkage = BAN cosine
Define Faraday’s law
the magnitude of the induced e.m.f is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux linkage
Define Lenz’s law
An induced e.m.f is in a direction so as to produce effects that oppose the change producing it
