Q

Lenz’s law:

A

the induced current flows in a direction so as to set up

a magnetic field to oppose the change in magnetic flux

Q

Factors affecting emf : (4)

A
  • The greater the speed of the movement, the greater the emf induced
  • Emf was zero when there was no motion
  • The greater the area of the coil, the greater the emf
  • The greater the number of coils, the greater the emf
  • The greater the strength of the magnet, the greater the emf

Q

How does a transformer work?

A

The secondary coil picks up this magnetic flux.
The secondary coil experiences a changing magnetic flux and so an emf is induced in the secondary coil. The iron core traps the magnetic field created by the primary core and its magnetization increases the field strength.
