    Why is EMF generated by changing magnetic flux?

    I am fixed to find out the reason what makes the charges get separated in conductor causing an emf leading to induced current. A very good reason exists for motional emf. It can be explained with the help of F=qvBsinΘ.

    Calculating multiple magnitudes for induced electric field

    Let's say I place two different size conducting loops inside of a uniform magnetic field. For the sake of the diagram I have the loops share a point, but just treat them as though they are not touching. Then I decrease the value of the magnetic field very quickly. \frac{dB}{dt} =...

    Are induced currents created by motion or change in flux?

    The book I am working through is beginning to dive into induced currents and Lenz's Law. When a conductor is moving perpendicular to a magnetic field, the charge carriers inside will experience a magnetic force; This causes the charges to move. Eventually, the electric field from the charge...

    Induced Emf due to changing magnetic flux

    If we have a conducting loop, and a magnet (say North pole first) is pushed into it; that induces and emf and hence a current in the coil due to the changing magnetic flux, right? According to Lenz' law, the direction of the current is such that it opposes the change. So from the side the magnet...

    Charge passing through a magnetic field of uniform magnetic flux density

    My reasoning: The magnetic force on charge q is Fm = qv x B B does not change |v|. Therefore, |Fm| is constant at time t > 0 and Fm is always perpendicular to the direction of movement of charge q. Fm behaves as a centripetal force, and thus the charge moves along the circumference of a...

    Does Magnetic Flux Remain Constant in Changing Magnetic Fields?

    I know that the equation for magnetic flux is \Phi=\int \vec{B} \cdot dA. It seems to me that this is like integrating the density function a rod with respect to x, which simply gives you the mass which is constant. I was wondering whether the same thing applies here: is magnetic flux a constant?
