What does a MEG scan do?
It measures the magnetic fields produced by nerve cells and their electric currents
What is the birth name of Don Eddy?

Eddy Andersson's birth name is Gunnar Eddy Andersson.
How do you get rid of unwanted eddy currents?
To eliminate eddy currents you can cut small slits in metals. This will prevent larger eddy currents from occurring. Placing insulators between small laminations can also help to protect against eddy currents.
Why are eddys formed in a conductor in an external magnetic field?
Eddy currents are electric currents that are produced inside conductors, through the process of changing the magnetic field in the conductor. The external magnetic field is used as a barrier or skin to protect the eddy.
Eddy current in transformer?
Yes, a transformer has eddy currents.
How does currents create a garbage patch in the ocean?
eddy currents
What are circular currents called?
If you are referring to currents in iron cores, circular currents are called eddy currents.
Can eddy current only exist in conductive or nonconductive materials?
'Eddy currents' are a circulating currents set up as a result of voltages induced into a metal component which not intended to carry current. For example, eddy currents are induced into the silicon-steel core of a transformer due to voltages induced into the core by the changing currents in the transformer's windings. Eddy currents are unavoidable, although steps can be taken to minimise them -in the case of a transformer's core, by manufacturing the core from laminations. Eddy currents generally have no useful function, but represent energy losses. To answer your question directly, eddy currents can only exist in conducting materials.
Why is transformer made of a number of iron sheets?
That is to reduce eddy currents, and therefore, transformer losses - since the eddy currents are wasted energy.
What has the author J A Tegopoulos written?
J. A. Tegopoulos has written: 'Eddy currents in linear conducting media' -- subject(s): Eddy currents (Electric)
What are the swirling currents called that are induced in transformers and produce heat losses?
Eddy currents
How do eddy currents affect falling objects?
Assuming the eddy currents are caused by the object falling through a magnetic field, the energy for the eddy currents come from the movement through the magnetic field. Therefore, simply due to energy conservation, the object should be slowed down.
What is eddy current loss in transformers?
Eddy current loss in Transformers is because of the eddy currents formed in the body of the magnetic core.Whenever a conductor(iron core) exposed to a changing magnetic field a magnetc field produced in the body of the magnetic core.That induce a circulating current in it.Which is called eddy current.In the case transformer it is loss.But it is useful in other purposes.
What is eddi current?
An 'eddy' (not 'eddi'!) current is a current that flows in the magnetic circuit (core) of an electrical machine, due to a voltage induced into that core by a changing magnetic field. Eddy currents cause energy losses in electrical machines. To minimise eddy currents and, therefore, their losses, machines use laminated cores which restrict the paths through which eddy currents can flow.
