Homework Statement
I was doing an experiment to verify faraday's law
Where we were basically dropping a magnet through a coil and measuring the induced emf
Now here is the thing I can't explain;
we connected 2 coils in series and found the induced emf was the same as that of one coil
then we connected 2 coils in parallel and found that the induced emf was half that when using one coil.
How do you explain this... I thought it had something to do with the resistance but when I checked it using a bit of math for resistance in series and parallel I did not get a result like that from the experiment.
What is happening in terms of the physics here. Thanks
