What is the original vector equation that is usually used to calculate this type of problem?kpsr said:Homework Statement
What is the EMF generated in a straight conductor of length L placed in a time varying magnetic field B as
shown in the below figure..
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Time varying magnetic field is B.cosωt,
EMF = (d/dx)(B.L.cosωt) = -B.L.ω.cosωt
I don't know this result true or not Please correct me..
In my above attempt I have used the transformer emf formula, in that formula I just used a straight conductor instead of a coil..berkeman said:What is the original vector equation that is usually used to calculate this type of problem?
Assume that you just have a rod without a voltmeter. You have "Free" electrons inside the wire.kpsr said:
That is not the fundamental vector equation for this problem. If you are not familiar with that equation, it will take a bit more work to help you with this. What class is this for? What level in university or high school?kpsr said:
Since this is a schoolwork-type question, our site rules require us to try to get you to figure it out on your own, rather than giving you the answer.kpsr said:
You didn't answer my question yet -- do you know the general vector equation that is used to calculate the EMF of a wire in a changing magnetic field? That is how you should approach this problem, rather than using simplifications of the equation like you posted above. If you're not sure which equation it is, just Google for calculate EMF in a wire from a changing magnetic field...kpsr said:

Good. So if there is no area enclosed, the induced EMF would be...kpsr said:I googled a lot and every time what i can found is the emf generated only for a conductor coil/loop in a changing magnetic field (B.cosωt),
and that general vector equation is
or
Here N is the number of turns in coil, A is the area of the coil and hence B.A is the flux Φ linked with that coil.
But what i am talking about a straight conductor with N almost 1 and there is no area A except length L.
that's why i replaced the flux BA from above equations with BL ,correct my approach...
the induced EMF would be zero.. But that must be not correct, as from the working principle of transformers there must be an emf given by the Case(i) from the file or may be else, that what really confusing me, please clarify it..berkeman said:Good.

What is "Case(i)"? A transformer has an EMF induced by the changing magnetic field that pierces the coils because the coils have area. So the B dot dA term in the equation is non-zero...kpsr said:

EMF stands for electromagnetic force or electromotive force. It is the force that causes the motion of charged particles in an electric field.
EMF is generated in a straight conductor when there is a change in the magnetic flux through the conductor. This can be achieved by moving a magnet near the conductor or by changing the current flowing through the conductor.
The amount of EMF generated in a straight conductor depends on the strength of the magnetic field, the length of the conductor, and the speed at which the conductor moves through the magnetic field. It also depends on the material of the conductor and its resistance.
In most cases, the EMF generated in a straight conductor is not harmful to humans. However, exposure to high levels of EMF for long periods of time may have negative health effects. It is important to follow safety guidelines and limit exposure to high levels of EMF.
EMF generated in a straight conductor is used in a variety of everyday devices, such as generators, motors, and transformers. It is also used in wireless communication technologies, such as radios and cell phones. In addition, EMF generated in a straight conductor is used in medical imaging techniques, such as MRI machines.
