A

Blank

35
Q

Four Factors of Faraday’s Law

A
  1. The strength of the magnetic field
  2. The velocity of the magnetic field as it moves past the conductor
  3. The angle of the conductor to the magnetic field (lines of flux)
  4. The number of turns in the conductor
36
Q

Lenz’s Law

A

An induced emf generates a current that induces a counter magnetic field that opposes the magnetic field generating the current

37
Q

Mutual Induction

A

The production of an electromotive force (emf) or voltage in an electric circuit caused by a changing magnetic flux in a neighboring circuit.

38
Q

Self-Induction

A

Property whereby an electromotive force is induced in a circuit by a variation of current in the circuit itself.

39
Q
