Explain factors that affect the magnitude of force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field. Describe the effect of a  current-carrying coil  in a magnetic field.

Scene 5

Which can be made by sending an electric current through a coil of wire wound around an iron core

Used in motors, generators, relays, loudspeakers, hard disks, MRI machine

When a current flows through the coil,  it produces  magnetic field. The soft iron core becomes  temporarily magnetized When the current is cut off, it loses its magnetism

Scene 6

A  region around a magnet or a current-carrying conductor in  which  a magnetic force will act on a magnetic material. Consists  of magnet lines or magnetic flux. Magnetic field lines which are close together represent a strong field.  The field direction is defined as the direction indicated by a compass needle placed in the magnetic field.

Scene 7

How to determine the direction of magnetic field?

Grip the wire using the  right hand, with your thumb pointing in the direction of the current. Your other fingers now point round the wire in the direction of the magnetic field.  When the direction of the current is reversed, the magnetic field direction also is reversed.

Factors that affect the strength of the electromagnet

Current flowing in the solenoid Number of turns on the solenoid Distance between the turns The use of soft iron core

More paper clips attached to the solenoid!

Scene 16

When the bell push is pressed, a current flows in the coils of the electromagnet, causing it to be magnetized.  The magnetized electromagnet attracts the soft-iron armature, causing the hammer to strike the gong.  The movement of the armature breaks the contact and causes the electromagnet to lose it magnetism.

The light spring pulls the armature back, remaking the contact and completing the circuit again.  The cycle is repeated so long as the bell push is pressed and continuous ringing occurs.

Electromagnetic  Relay (automatic switch)

When the switch is closed, current flows in the coil, causing the soft-iron core to be magnetized and attracts the  armarture . The movement of the iron armature closes the contacts in the second circuit. Circuit 2 is now switched on.  Circuit 2 may have a large current flowing through it to operate powerful motors or very bright lights .

Scene 18

The varying current from the microphone flows through the coils of an electromagnet in the earpiece.  This pulls the iron diaphragm towards the electromagnet by a distance which depends on the current.  As a result, the diaphragm moves in and out and produces sound waves that are replicas of those that entered the microphone.

Scene 19

This results in the spring pulling apart the contacts. The circuit is broken and the current flow stops immediately.  After repairs have been made, the reset button is pushed to switch on the supply again.

Soft iron armature pulled towards electromagnet

Acts as an automatic switch that breaks open a circuit when the current becomes too  large due to short circuit or overloading. The  strength of the magnetic field of the electromagnet increases suddenly. The soft iron armature is pulled towards the electromagnet.

Scene 21

FORCE ON A CURRENT-CARRYING CONDUCTOR IN A MAGNETIC FIELD

conductor is pushed upwards Switch closed

The combination of the magnetic field due to the current in the conductor and the external magnetic field produce a  resultant magnetic field.  This resultant magnetic field produce a  magnetic force  which  later act on the current carrying conductor.

When a conductor carries an electric current through another magnetic field, a magnetic  force is exerted on the wire .

Scene 22

The direction of the magnetic force, F, acting on the conductor can be determined by using  Fleming’s left-hand rule.

N S Spring Carbon brush Commutator Permanent  Magnet Coil of wire

Spring :   Push the brush so it will always contact with the commutator.

Commutator:   Reverse the direction of current in the coil every half rotation so that the coil continues to turn in same direction

Carbon  Brush:   To contact with the commutator so the current from the battery enters the coil.

Scene 31

The  working principle of the  direct current motor

When the coil gets to the upright position, the contact between the carbon brushes with the commutator is broken.  There is ________turning force on it because no current flows in the coil.  But the coil continues to rotate because of its _______________.

When current flows through the horizontal coil, magnetic field is produced around it.  The interaction between the magnetic field of the current and the magnetic field of the permanent magnet produces a _________ and 2 turning force.  The direction of the force is determined by Fleming’s left-hand rule.  The two forces  _____________the coil ______________________________.

Scene 32

When the coil in a horizontal position again, the sides of the coil changes position.  The commutator _________________   the direction of the current in the coil to ensure that the forces on the coil turn the coil in one direction only.  So the coil is still rotating in the same _______________.

The above processes are repeated and the motor continues to rotate.

Scene 35

At the end of this subtopic, students should be able to: Describe electromagnetic induction in  straight wire and solenoid . Explain factors that affect magnitude of induced  emf Determine the  direction of induced current  in straight wire and solenoid Design a  direct current  and  alternating current generator

What happens to the light bulb when the bicycle stops?

Scene 37

It is the  production of an electric current  by a changing magnetic field as a result of  relative motion  between the conductor and the magnetic field.

Scene 38

The induced current is produced only when there is  relative motion  between the conductor / coil and the magnetic field lines. The relative motion of a conductor across a magnetic field can be produced by:

Moving a permanent magnet towards one end of a solenoid or vice versa.

Moving  a straight wire quickly across a magnetic field between two flat magnets or vice versa.

Scene 39

Each time the straight wire cuts across the magnetic field, or the permanent magnet moves towards the solenoid,  a  current is induced in the coil and a deflection is observed in the sensitive galvanometer.  This current is called induced current.  The  electromotive force that is produced is called the induced  e.m.f .

Scene 40

If a galvanometer shows a deflection, it means there is an _________________________ Current is induced in a straight conductor when it moves and cuts the magnetic field lines _________________________ The motion of the copper rod must be _________________ to the direction of the magnetic field lines so that an induced current will be produced.

Scene 41

Push the bar magnet into the solenoid. Observe the deflection of the galvanometer. 	 Hold the bar magnet stationary in the solenoid. Note the reading of the galvanometer. 	 Pull the bar magnet out of the solenoid. Observe the deflection of the galvanometer.  Solenoid  Magnet Galvanometer Galvanometer Solenoid  Magnet Solenoid  Magnet Galvanometer

b. ELECROMAGNETIC INDUCTION IN A SOLENOID

Scene 42

The galvanometer showed a  positive reading  when the bar magnet and solenoid were coming  closer  to each other. This shows that a  current is produced  in the solenoid in  certain direction .

The galvanometer showed a  negative reading  when the magnet and solenoid were moving  further away  from each other. This shows that a current is produced in the solenoid in the  opposite directions .  A  current is induced  in a solenoid when there is  relative motion  between the solenoid and a magnet.

Current is induced in a  straight conductor  when it  moves and cuts  the magnetic field lines . Current is induced in a  solenoid  when there is  relative motion  between the solenoid and a magnet.

Scene 43

HOW TO INDICATE THE DIRECTION OF THE INDUCED CURRENT IN A STRAIGHT WIRE?

Current direction Magnetic field direction Force/ motion direction

If the thumb and the first two fingers on the right hand are held at  right angles to each other  with the first finger pointing in the direction of the magnetic field and the thumb in the direction of the motion, then the second finger points in the direction of the induced current.

Scene 44

A wire PQ is moved vertically downwards in a magnetic field.  The induced current will flow from P  to Q .   [ Apply Fleming’s right-hand rule]

Scene 45

HOW TO INDICATE THE DIRECTION OF THE INDUCED CURRENT IN A SOLENOID?

The resulting induced current always flows in the direction opposing the change in magnetic flux that produced it. Lenz’s Law
