As an assignment,

Replace the bulb with voltage meter.

Observe the change in the induced EMF, when

1 Magnet is moved rapidly

2 Polarity of the magnet is flipped

Explain your observation.

Click on Electromagnet tab. Click on Electromagnet tab.
Point to electromagnet, magnetic lines of force and compass. This screen has an electromagnet with its magnetic lines of force and a compass.
Point to 10 v battery.

Point to voltage slider.

Electromagnet has a 10 v battery as a source of current.

This Battery has a voltage slider to control the voltage.

Check Show Field Meter check-box.

Place the field meter on the coil.

Click on Show Field Meter check-box.

Place the field meter on the coil.

Drag the voltage slider towards zero.

Point to electrons.

Gradually decrease the voltage of the battery from 10 volt to 1 volt.

Observe the change in speed of electrons on the coil with change in voltage.

Point to electron movement. The speed of electron movement decreases as voltage is reduced from 10 volt to 1 volt.
Point to magnetic field lines. Magnetic field disappears at zero voltage.

Now, the coil is no more an electromagnet.

Drag the slider to left side towards 10 v. Continue to drag the voltage slider to the left side towards 10 volt.
Point to compass needle. Polarity of electromagnet has changed.

This changes direction of magnetic lines of force.

Slide Number 9

Assignment

As an assignment,

Change the number of loops of the coil

and observe the magnetic field(B) values.

Let us see how a transformer works.
Click on Transformer tab. Click on Transformer tab to open it.
Point to Electromagnet.

Point to Pickup Coil.

Transformer screen has,
  • an electromagnet with DC current source as a primary coil
  • a Pickup Coil with Indicator as a secondary coil
Point to both the coils. In the transformer, primary coil induces a current into a secondary coil.
Point to Electromagnet and Pickup Coil boxes. Right panel has Electromagnet and Pickup Coil boxes.
Click on Show Compass check-box. Click on Show Compass check-box in Electromagnet box.
Cursor on interface.

Drag the coils close to each other.

In a transformer, two coils are linked together by an iron core.

However, in this case we don't have the iron core to link the coils.

Move the coils close, so that they touch each other.

Point to area of the loop.

Point to light bulb.

At the stationary position there is no change in the flux.

Hence, bulb does not glow.

Point to the secondary coil. To induce voltage in the secondary coil, magnetic field should vary.
Drag the slider to left side.

Point to light bulb.

Point to compass needle and electrons.

Drag the voltage slider of the electromagnet back and forth.

As we drag, notice that bulb glows.

Also, note the deflections in the compass needle and direction of flow of electrons.

Move primary coil in and out of the secondary coil.

Point to area of loop.

Point to light bulb.

Next drag the primary coil in and out of the secondary coil.

Observe the change in flux as we move the coil.

Now bulb glows brightly.

Point to Electromagnet box.

Click on AC source.

From the Electromagnet box, change the DC source to AC source.
Point to magnetic field lines.

Point to the secondary coil.

AC current in primary coil produces a changing magnetic field.

This changing magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary coil.

Point to light bulb. Observe the change in voltage in the bulb with changing magnetic field.
Drag the vertical slider of AC current supply.

Point to light bulb.

In the AC current supply, increase the amplitude.

With the increase in amplitude of the wave, bulb glows brightly.

Drag the horizontal slider. Drag the horizontal slider to increase the frequency.
Point to light of light bulb and compass needle. Notice the fast flickering in the bulb and deflections on compass.

This is due to change in voltage in the coils.

Point to coils of primary and secondary coil. Note that there are 4 loops on the primary coil and 2 loops on the secondary coil.
Under Pickup Coil box,

Click on Loops input box >> increase the number of loops to 3.

Under Electromagnet box, Reduce the number of loops to 1.

Now increase the number of loops on secondary coil to 3.

Reduce the number of loops of primary coil to 1.

Point to light bulb. Note the change in voltage of the bulb in the transformer.
Slide Number 10

Drag slider at the top of tap. Drag the slider to turn on the faucet.
Point to rotating bar magnet.

Point to changing magnetic lines.

Point to compass.

Observe that the bar magnet starts spinning as water falls on it.

As the magnet rotates, magnetic lines of force change continuously.

Point to Field Meter and compass. Notice the change in the values in the Field Meter.
Point to light bulb. This results in the production of induced EMF in the coil and bulb glows.
Point to RPM value. Now lets increase the rotation of magnet to 100 RPM.
Drag the faucet slider to the extreme right end. Drag the faucet slider gradually to maximum.
Point to magnetic field lines. Observe the rapidly changing magnetic field with increase in RPM.
