Electrodynamics Flashcards
1
Q
Magnetic flux density
A
A representation of the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field
2
Q
Magnetic flux
A
magnetic flux passing through a loop is defined as “Flux = BAcosx “, Where x is the angle between the magnetic flux density (B) the normal to the loop of the area(A).
3
Q
Magnetic flux linkage
A
The product of the number of turns on the coil and the flux through the coil (flux * number of turns)
4
Q
Faradays law of electromagnetic induction
A
The EMF induced is directly proportional to to the rate of change of magnetic flux
5
Q
Lenz’s law
A
Induced current flows in a direction so as to set up a magnetic field to oppose the change in magnetic flux
6
Q
Diode
A
A component that only allows current to flow in one direction
