What is EMF?1) Any voltage, as from a battery.

What is EMF?1) Any voltage, as from a battery.

2) An effective voltage produced by induced electric fields.

I usually reserve the term EMF for induced voltages.

Two Ways to Produce Induced EMF

1) Acceleration of charges – changing current in a circuit.

2)Motional EMF – charges in a conductor moving in a B field.

Motional EMF

A wire of length L moves through a magnetic field. The wire is perpendicular to B. What happens?

Faraday’s Law of InductionFaraday’s Law of Induction

…works for both motional EMF and the EMF of accelerating charges!

What is EMF?We can think of an induced EMF as a voltage produced all along a wire segment.

B

v

What is EMF?

Let’s take a square loop with an increasing magnetic field passing through it. Assume the wire has a small resistance.

V

What is EMF?

Assume that the EMF around the loop is 40 V. What would a voltmeter read?

V

What is EMF?

The voltmeter would read zero!

V = 0V

What is EMF?

The voltmeter would read zero because the voltage drop due to resistance in the wire segment is exactly the same as the voltage increase due to induction in the wire segment.

V = 0V

What is EMF?

Another way of putting it is that the wire segment is like a lot of little batteries and resistors in series. The voltage goes up through each battery, but down by the same amount through each resistor.

V = 0V

What is EMF?

Each electron that goes around the full loop once gains 40eV of energy from the EMF and loses 40eV of energy to heat!

V =0V

What if there’s a resistor in the loop?

The total EMF is 40V.

5

What if there’s a resistor in the loop?

The total EMF is 40V. Ohm’s Law gives i = 8A.

The voltage across the resistor is 40V.

5

Where is the EMF being produced?

5

Where is the EMF being produced?

Everywhere, including through the resistor.

5

Where is the voltage dropping?

5

Where is the voltage dropping?

Primarily in the resistor – just a little in the wire. The resistor only lets a little current trickle through the wire – as compared to having no resistor.

Lenz’s Law

To determine the direction induced current will flow in a circuit or to determine the direction of the induced electric field, we use Lenz’s Law.

Lenz’s Law

First, we ask two questions:

1) What is the direction of the external B field?

2) Is the external B field increasing or decreasing?

Lenz’s Law

1) What is the direction of the external B field?

2) Is the external B field increasing or decreasing?3) Find the direction of the induced

magnetic field. The induced magnetic field opposes change in the external magnetic field.

Lenz’s Law

1) What is the direction of the external B field?

2) Is the external B field increasing or decreasing?3) Find the direction of the induced

magnetic field. The induced magnetic field opposes change in the external magnetic field.

4) Find the direction the induced current using the right-hand rule.

If the external field comes from a permanent magnet, the magnetic field of the loop attracts the permanent magnet, making it more difficult to move away.

If the external field comes from an electromagnet, the interaction of the loop with the electromagnet takes some energy from the electromagnet’s circuit.

Engineering Considerations

We usually want to get current out of the coils as they turn, so rather than use a complete loop, we use an open loop with each end connecting to a wire.

Engineering Considerations

But fixed wires would twist and break.

-- So we use commutators and brushes.

Commutators and Brushes

These allow electrical connections to be made by pressing conductors together.

Commutators

A typical AC generator or motor uses double commutators. Each end of the loop is connected to a separate commutator.

Motors

A simple motor consists of a current-carrying coil in a uniform magnetic field.

A torque on the coil tends to align the magnetic dipole moment of the loop with the external field.

It’s a little hard to keep moving the leads on the battery back and forth by hand. So we need a better way of doing it.

AC Current

The easiest way to do this is to use AC current instead of a battery. The direction of the current through the loop automatically changes sign periodically.

AC Current

Note that the speed of such a motor is closely tied to the frequency of the AC power supply.

The Split Commutator

Another clever solution is to use a “split commutator.” A split commutator automatically changes the end of the loop connected to the positive terminal of the battery every half cycle.

DC Motors

Thus, split commutators allow motors to be operated by DC power sources.

Generators

Generators are just motors operated in reverse.
