Why does the acceleration of a magnet decrease while falling through a coil?

Because as it falls through the coil it causes an electric current to flow in the coil. The energy for this electricity comes from the kinetic (the movement ie the falling) energy of the magnet. Thus as it falls through the coil it slows down as a little the energy of the falling movement is turned into electricity.


Where is the magnetic field created alternator?

The magnetic field in an alternator is created by the rotor, which is an electromagnet that produces a rotating magnetic field as it spins. This magnetic field induces an alternating current in the stator windings through electromagnetic induction, which is then converted to usable electrical power.


What creates the magnetic field for the electromagnet?

The magnetic field for an electromagnet is created by the flow of electric current through a coil of wire, which generates a magnetic field around the coil.


How is a magnetic field created for an electromagnet?

A magnetic field is created in an electromagnet when an electric current flows through a coil of wire. The moving electrons within the wire generate a magnetic field around the coil, resulting in the electromagnet attracting or repelling other magnetic materials. The strength of the magnetic field can be controlled by adjusting the amount of current flowing through the coil.


How does the phenomenon of a magnet falling through a copper tube demonstrate the principles of electromagnetic induction?

When a magnet falls through a copper tube, it creates a changing magnetic field. This changing magnetic field induces an electric current in the copper tube through electromagnetic induction. The induced current creates a magnetic field that opposes the motion of the magnet, causing it to slow down and demonstrating the principles of electromagnetic induction.
