ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETISM

 

Induced electromagnetic force (emf): Conductor in a Magnetic Field:  E = B*l*v

E - Induced emf;  B - flux density of the magnetic field;  l - length of conductor;  v - velocity of conductor across magnetic field

 

Induced electromagnetic force (emf): Coil in a Magnetic Field: E = -N (ΔΦ / Δt)

N - number of turns;  E - induced emf

ΔΦ / Δt - the change in flux linkage in a given interval of time

 

Instantaneous Voltage:  e = Emax sin θ

e - instantaneous voltage;Emax - maximum voltage

θ - angle between the plane of the conducting loop and the perpendicular to the      magnetic flux (displacement angle)

 

Instantaneous Current:  i = lmax sin θ

i - instantaneous current;  lmax - maximum current;  θ - displacement angle
