What is difference between induced voltage and induced current?
Just as a current flowing through a wire will produce a magnetic field, so a wire moving through a magnetic field will have a current flowing through it. This is called electromagnetic induction and the current in the wire is called induced current. A stationary wire in the presence of a changing magnetic field also has an induced current. A changing magnetic field can be produced either by moving a magnet near to the stationary wire or by using alternating current. A stationary wire in a magnetic field which is not changing will have no current induced in it. You will sometimes see this effect described as induced voltage. Strictly speaking, you will only get an induced current in the wire if it is part of a complete circuit. A wire which is unconnected at both ends will have a difference in voltage between the ends (a potential difference) but current can only flow when the wire is in a circuit. Induced current is used in electricity generation and transformers.Another AnswerThere is no such thing as an 'induced current', only an 'induced voltage'. Current will flow only if the conductor into which the voltage is induced forms part of a closed circuit.
When a conductor is moved through a magnetic field the force of the magnetic field generates what in the conductor?
Yes Ofcourse ,when a curren is allowed to pass through a conductor,"IT IS BEING SURROUNDED BY MAGNETIC FIENLD".... Because it somehow behaves as the electromagnet as per FARADAY LAW OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.............
Why are both negative and positive voltages generated as the magnet passes through the coil?
In this context, 'negative' and 'positive' are used to indicate the sense, or direction, of the induced voltages, as voltages do not have electric polarity (+ or -). The direction of the voltage induced into a conductor is determined by the direction of that conductor relative to the magnetic field. As the coil rotates, the directions of each side of the coil reverse relative to the field, and the induced voltages reverse too.
Explain what happens when a long straight conductor is moved through a uniform magnetic field at a constant velocity Assuming that the conductor moves perpendicularly to the field?
Interesting question. Because Fleming's right hand rule tells us that a conductor carrying a current perpedicular to a magnetic field will move in a particular direction we know that movement, current and magnetic field are related. So if we take the current away and instead force the conductor to move as described then we would observe a current in the wire. However, you have not said that your conductor is connected in a circuit - in which case the charge carriers in the conductor will tend to one side like a bar magnet.AnswerThe original answer is incorrect. A voltage would be induced into the conductor. No current would flow unless the conductor forms a continuous circuit.
What is the result on the meter reading of clamping the jaws of a clamp-on ammeter around two wires?
If the two wires are on a parallel feed you would read the current through the parallel feeders. If the two wires are "hot " to the load and return back from the load the meter will read zero. The two magnetic fields that surround the wires when a current flows through them will cancel each other. As a result of this there will be no magnetic induction induced into the sensing coil of the clamp on meter.
How does electromagnetic induction produce induced current?
Before you can understand how electrical energy is supplied by your electric company, you need to know how it is produced. A magnet and a conductor, such as a wire, can be used to induce a current in the conductor. The key is motion. An electric current is induced in a conductor when the conductor moves through a magnetic field. Generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor through a magnetic field is called electromagnetic induction. Current that is generated in this way is called induced current. To induce a current in a conductor, either the conductor can move through the magnetic field or the magnet itself can move.
The magnitude of the voltage induced in a conductor moving through a stationary magnetic field depends on the what?
The magnitude of the voltage induced in a conductor moving through a stationary magnetic field depends on the length and the speed of the conductor.
SI unit of magnetic-induction?
Electromagnetic induction is the process of inducing electric current in a coil with the help of a magnet.Whenever a conductor is moved through a magnetic field, or the magnetic field fluctuates in strength (as with an AC electromagnet), a current will be induced in that conductor. Induction cooktops work by passing a large AC current through a conductor under the cooktop, creating a fluctuating magnetic field which induces an electric current through the cookware - heating the cookware by electrical resistance.The process by which a substance, such as iron or steel, becomes magnetized by a magnetic field. The induced magnetism is produced by the force of the field radiating from the poles of a magnet.CommentFurther to the original answer, it is a voltage that is induced into a conductor, NOT a current.
How does electromagnetic induction works?
Electromagnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force across a conductor when it is exposed to a varying magnetic field. Basically it works because of electricity.
Electromagnectic induction occurs when?
a conductor is moved through a magnetic field
At what degree does a conductor have to pass through a magnetic field to get maximum induced current?
The induced current is maximum when the axis of the conductor, its velocity, and the magnetic field lines are all mutually perpendicular.
When a conductor is moved in a magnetic field a voltage will be induced on the conductor however current won't flow through the conductor unless the conductor is what?
moving
When a conductor is moved in a magnetic field a voltage will be induced on the conductor. However current won't flow through the conductor unless the conductor is?
moving
What is the process called in which a conductor cuts across a magnetic field and produces a voltage?
We call it induction when we pass a conductor through a magnetic field to produce voltage.
20 The magnitude of the voltage induced in a conductor moving through a stationary magnetic field depends on the and the of the conductor?
speed and lenght
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.
What produces an electromotive force through relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field?
Electromagnetic Induction.
