  • Chapter 20: Faraday’s Law, Lenz’s Law

    20.1 Introduction In this chapter, we will explore Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction and Lenz’s law. Faraday’s law states that a change in the magnetic field within a closed loop induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the loop. Lenz’s law describes the direction of the induced EMF and helps us understand the principle of energy…

  • Magnetic Field

    Introduction A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence of electric charges in relative motion and magnetized materials. The magnetic field at any given point is specified by both a direction and a magnitude (or strength), so it is a vector field. Magnetic Force on a Moving Charge The force exerted…
