Simulation Details
Description
Electromagnetic induction is a fundamental principle in physics, describing how a changing magnetic field induces an electric current in a nearby conductor. In this experiment, when a magnet’s north or south pole is moved near a coil of wire, the magnetic field surrounding the magnet interacts with the coil.
As the magnet moves, the magnetic flux through the coil changes, inducing an electromotive force (emf) according to Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. This induced EMF drives an electric current to flow through the coil, as detected by the galvanometer.
The direction of the induced current follows Lenz’s law, which states that the induced current creates a magnetic field that opposes the change in magnetic flux. Consequently, the galvanometer needle deflects in response to the induced current.
By varying the number of turns in the coil, we can observe how the induced current changes, demonstrating the relationship between magnetic flux, induced emf, and the number of turns in the coil.
