Motion of electrons inside the coil by variation of applied magnetic field.(more precisely magnetic flux).Varying magnetic field applies lorentz force on the electrons which aligns them in a particular direction which causes a net current in the circuit.

In this , when the c\n applied to primary coil,the coil remain at same position but the flux is vary w.r.t coil ,so the e.m.f is enduced that is dynamically inuced e.m.f.

Difference between back EMF and induced EMF?

An induced electromotive force (emf) is an induced voltage. Voltage (emf) causes current flow, and this induced voltage will cause a current that is called the induced current.We might also add that the induced current will cause a magnetic field to expand about the current path, and this field will "sweep" the conductor. The sweeping of the conductor by that expanding magnetic field will set up an emf that will oppose the emf that was creating it.CommentTechnically, there is no such thing as an 'induced current'. It is voltage that is induced. Any current flows as a result of that induced voltage being applied to a load. But that current is certainly NOT induced!


Does motional emf call induced emf?

yes indused emf is also called motional emf. If an open coil is subjected to a variable magnetic field, at the ends of the coil a potential difference is induced which is called induced emf. If a coil is connected to an emf source and switched on, the rising current will produced an variable magnetic field which in turn produces an emf. It is called back emf.


What are the Example each for self induced and mutually induced emf?

if an emf is induced in a coil due to the current flowing through itself is called SELF INDUCTANCE. on the other hand if an emf is induced on another coil due to the current flowing through the previous coil then it is called MUTUAL INDUCTANCE. suppose there are two coils A and B a current is flowing through A. now if the flux produced due to this current induce an emf on the same coil A, then it is SELF INDUCTANCE, and if it produce emf on B, then it is MUTUAL INDUCTANCE due to coil A.


Why induced current in a coil opposes the EMF producing it?

What is the main cause for the coefficient of coupling of a transformer being less than unity?

initially the induced emf i.e.,self inductance is high than mutually induced emf in the other .....so coefficient of coupling is high

Can emf induced without an alternating magnetic flux?

No. EMF can only be induced in a wire by a varying magnetic flux. It does not have to be alternating, but it must be varying.

How is emf induced in an alternator?

EMF or electromotive force, i.e.Voltage, is generated when the magnets inside the alternator turn within the wire coil of the alternator.

Difference between statically and dynamically induced emf?

STATICALLY INDUCED EMFThe emf induced in a coil due to change of flux linked with it (change of flux is by the increase or decrease in current) is called statically induced emf.Transformer is an example of statically induced emf. Here the windings are stationary,magnetic field is moving around the conductor and produces the emf.DYNAMICALLY INDUCED EMFThe emf induced in a coil due to relative motion of the conductor and the magnetic field is called dynamically induced emf.example:dc generator works on the principle of dynamically induced emf in the conductors which are housed in a revolving armature lying within magnetic field


How can you say that ac emf is induced in the coil?

When we place a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field emf is induced in a coil. we can knoe it by connecting voltmeter.


Difference between induced emf and generated emf?

In an analogy, Generated EMFs can be considered as the speed or force at which the boat is moving, while Induced EMFs can be considered as a standyby boat with no engine, when the moving boat with an engine passes. Generated EMFs, considered as the boat with an engine, is the voltage which is generated by a source, by which in this case is the engine, while the Induced EMF, considered as the boat with no engine, is affected by the moving boat with an engine, thereby also moving the Induced EMF. In a sense, Generated EMFs have their own source while Induced are only 'moved' by other external forces. Like wise when electrons flow on a wire the ripples or magnetic flux will induce or generate motion on any wire or conductor next to it. That's how transformers work.


How was current produce or induced?

Current is induced and not produced. when an electric wire is passed through magnetic field the current is induced in the electric wire, this electric wire is enamelled copper conductor of a rotor.AnswerCurrent is never 'induced' into a conductor. It is a voltage that is induced. If that conductor is then part of a complete circuit, then the induced voltage will cause a current to flow. The induced voltage will occur even when the conductor is open circuited.

How the process of change in magnetic flux causes induced emf?

According to Faraday's laws of electromagnetic induction, whenever a varving flux link with a conductor an emf is induced.


What is Back emf of DC motor?

In dc motor, the armature conductors are revolving in the magnetic field and emf is induced in the armature conductors. The direction of the induced emf is in opposite direction to the applied voltage as per Flemings left hand rule. So, the induced emf in motor is called as back emf or counter emf. Vydehi
