Key Topics to Revise

1

Magnetic Flux and Faraday's Experiments

  • Magnetic flux (Φ) is defined as the product of magnetic field and area perpendicular to it
  • Faraday's experiments showed that relative motion between magnet and coil produces current
  • Current is induced only when there is change in magnetic flux, not when flux is constant
2

Faraday's Laws of Electromagnetic Induction

  • First Law: EMF is induced whenever magnetic flux through circuit changes
  • Second Law: Induced EMF is proportional to rate of change of flux
  • Negative sign in Faraday's law represents Lenz's law
3

Motional EMF and Applications

  • EMF induced in moving conductor cutting magnetic field lines
  • EMF depends on velocity, magnetic field, and length of conductor
  • Direction given by Fleming's right-hand rule
4

Self-Inductance and Mutual Inductance

  • Self-inductance opposes change in current through same coil
  • Mutual inductance relates current in one coil to flux in another
  • Inductance depends on geometry and core material
