Induced Potential 2
Magnetic Field Direction
Magnetic Field Direction
For both solenoids and straight wires, reversing the direction of the magnetic field's movement will reverse the direction of any induced current.
Induced current opposes original change
Induced current opposes original change
- An induced current generates a magnetic field that opposes the original change (the movement of the conductor or the change in the magnetic field).
Forces Between Electricity and Magnets
Forces Between Electricity and Magnets
When a potential difference (p.d) is induced in a wire, it creates a force acting in the opposite direction to the action that induced the p.d. This is due to the motor effect.
Moving downwards
Moving downwards
- If a wire moves downwards into a horseshoe magnet:
- A p.d is induced in the wire and an electric current flows through the wire.
- A force will push the wire upwards, opposing the downwards movement of the wire that induced the p.d.
Moving upwards
Moving upwards
- If the wire was moving upwards to create the p.d, then the force on the wire due to the induced p.d would push it downwards.
