Induced Currents
Concepts:
• Magnetic forces can create a separation of charge and hence a potential di↵erence (motional
emf). In a conducting loop, this leads to an induced current.
• An emf can be induced in other ways too: all that matters is the rate of change of magnetic
flux through the loop (Faraday’s law)
• The induced current will create a magnetic field that opposes the change in the original magnetic
flux (Lenz’s law)
• Due to the power dissipated by induced currents, a force is required to keep a conductor moving
through a magnetic field (Eddy currents)
Ensure you have viewed the introductory video, completed the reading, and submitted your an-
swers to the pre-reading quiz before attending this workshop. See the course website for details.
The relationship of magnetic flux operates in much the same way as electric flux that we studied
earlier. The main difference being the presence of a magnetic field instead of the electric field. The
magnetic flux through a loop of wire can be changed by changing the magnitude of the magnetic
field, changing the area of the loop and by changing the angle between the surface of the loop
and the magnetic field vector.
Current is only induced from a change in the magnetic field, not the magnetic field itself, contrary
to how an electric current creates a magnetic field.
Can we go over lenz's law and the directions of the current depending on the direction of the
magnetic field and if there's a change in flux
I mainly have trouble understanding all the maths behind the equations and the symbols and all
that tend to confuse me a lot.

The figure shows an edge view of a copper sheet being pulled between two magnetic poles.
• Add a dot or a cross to each of the circles to indicate the direction in which eddy currents
are flowing in and out of the page.
• Do these currents experience magnetic forces? If so, add force vectors to the figure to
show the directions. If not, why not?
• Is there a net magnetic force on the copper sheet? If so, in which direction?
