what is an induced current? |

Faraday's experiments with a magnet & a coil:
What happens when the magnet is held steady and the
coil is moved toward/away the magnet:
Is there a current induced?
Is the magentic field increasing or decreasing in the coil? |
|
Definition
Yes a current is still induced.
It doesnt matter whether the coil or the magnet moves,
motion or change is required to induce an emf. So it is the realtive motion btwn the magnet & coil that is important.
the magnetic field in coil is constant. |

Conceptual Question: In an induction stove, an AC current passes around a coil that is a 'burner' (a burner that never gets hot). Why will it heat a metal pan but not a glass container? |
|
Definition
the AC current sets up a changing magentic field that passes through the pan bottom
this changing magnectic field induces a current in the pan bottom
However a metal pan has little resistance = electrical energy is converted to thermal energy
a glass container has a high resistance=
little current induced=
little energy is transferred to container |
