The voltage of the second peak is greater than the voltage of the first.
There are two peaks: one for when you push the magnet in and one for
when you pull the magnet out.
They are opposite in direction because of Faraday's law which states that
the induced voltage throughout the wire induces a current that creates a
magnetic flux in the direction opposing the change in flux.
So as we push the north end of the magnet in, the induced field should
point out; as you pull the magnet out, the field should point in.
Question 2: For each run, how does the magnitude (amount) of the voltage of the
second peak compare to the magnitude ( amount) of the voltage of first? Explain
why you think this happens?
We can see that the magnitude of the second peaks is greater than the
magnitude of the first parts.
When we release the magnet through the coil. The motion of the magnet is
free fall, so we have the first velocity is smaller than the second velocity.
Because of this, the magnetic field through the coil is change, so the
magnitude of the voltage also changes.
The magnitude of the voltage of two peaks: because the motion of the
magnitude is the free fall. So the first peak, we have the motion is less than
the second peak .
So the magnetic field will be change when drop the magnetic in the coil is
increasing.
Question 3: How does the shape of the voltage versus time graph when the north
pole of magnet is dropped first compare to the overall shape of the graph when the
south pole is dropped first?
Overall, the shape of voltage versus time when the north pole of the magnet
is dropped first is a mirror image across the X-axis of the shape of voltage
versus time when the south pole is dropped first. The fact that the shapes are
not ‘perfect’ mirror images is due to a difference in magnetic field strength
of one pole compared to the other.
Question 4: How does the maximum voltage for the coil with the more turn
compare to the maximum voltage for the coil with the fewer turn?
In this case, the maximum voltage for the coil with more turns is greater than
the maximum voltage for the coil with fewer turns. Because the magnitude
of voltage is proportional to the number of turns in the coil, as shown in the
equation:
ΔΦ
V induced =−N
Δt
