4 Concept Maps

This sequence diagram shows how a changing magnetic field induces an EMF and current in a coil, which is detected by a galvanometer

This sequence diagram shows how a changing magnetic field induces an EMF and current in a coil, which is detected by a galvanometer

The map in words

  • MF → Coil: Flux changes
  • Coil → Coil: EMF induced
  • Coil → G: Current flows
  • G → G: Deflection observed

This flowchart shows the step-by-step process of calculating induced emf using Faraday's Law, accounting for the number of turns in the coil.

This flowchart shows the step-by-step process of calculating induced emf using Faraday's Law, accounting for the number of turns in the coil.

The map in words

  • Magnetic Flux Changes (dΦ/dt ≠ 0)
    • Apply Faraday's Law
      • Calculate: ε = N × dΦ/dt
        • Number of turns?
          • Single loop: ε = dΦ/dt
            • EMF Induced
          • N turns: ε = N × dΦ/dt

This state diagram illustrates Lenz's Law showing how induced current always opposes the change in magnetic flux—either opposing an increase or supporting a decrease.

This state diagram illustrates Lenz's Law showing how induced current always opposes the change in magnetic flux—either opposing an increase or supporting a decrease.

The map in words

  • IncreasingFlux → InducedFieldOpposing (Induced current flows)
  • InducedFieldOpposing → Repulsion (Field repels magnet)
  • DecreasingFlux → InducedFieldSupporting (Induced current flows)
  • InducedFieldSupporting → Attraction (Field attracts magnet)
