Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Current Formula

Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Current Formula

Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction:

EMF induced (ε) = – N dΦ\over dt

  • ε is the induced electromotive force,
  • N is the number of turns in the coil,
  • (dΦ/dt) is the rate of change of magnetic flux through the coil

Lenz’s Law: The direction of the induced current is such that it opposes the change causing it.

Self-Inductance:

EMF induced (ε) = -LdI\over dt or L = – ε/dI\over dt

  • ε is the induced electromotive force,
  • L is the self-inductance of the coil,
  • (dI/dt) is the rate of change of current in the coil

Mutual Inductance:

EMF induced (ε) = -MdI\over dt or M = – ε/dI\over dt

  • ε is the induced electromotive force,
  • M is the mutual inductance between two coils, and
  • (dI/dt) is the rate of change of current in the primary coil.

Energy Stored in an Inductor:

Energy stored = (1/2) L I2

Alternating Current (AC) Voltage and Current:

Instantaneous voltage = Vm sin(ωt)

Instantaneous current = Im sin(ωt + ϕ)

  • Peak voltage = Vm
  • Peak current = Im
  • Angular frequency = ω = 2πf
  • Phase difference = ϕ

Root Mean Square (RMS) Values:

Vrms = Vm/√2

Irms = Im/√2

Where

  • Vrms is the root mean square value of voltage,
  • Vm is the maximum voltage,
  • Irms is the root mean square value of the current,
  • Im is the maximum current.

Power in AC Circuit:

  1. Instantaneous power = Vm Im cos(ωt) = Vm Im cos ϕ
  2. Average power = (1/2) Vm Im cos ϕ
  3. Apparent power = Vrms Irms
  4. Power factor = cos ϕ = Real\ power\over Apparent\ power

9. LC Oscillations:
– Angular frequency = ω = 1/√(LC)
– Time period = T = 2π/ω

Resonance Frequency (f):

f = 1\over (2π \sqrt{LC})

Where

  • f is the resonance frequency,
  • L is the inductance, and
  • C is the capacitance in the LC circuit.

Quality Factor (Q):

Q = {1\over R} \sqrt{L\over C}

Where

  • Q is the quality factor,
  • R is the resistance,
  • L is the inductance, and
  • C is the capacitance in the LC circuit.

Transformers:

  1. {N_1 \over N_2} = {V_1 \over V_2}
  2. {E_1 / E_2} = {N_1 / N_2} = {V_1 / V_2}
  3. Turns ratio = {N_1\over N_2} = {V_1\over V_2} = {I_2\over I_1}
  4. Efficiency = {Output Power \over Input Power} × 100%

Where

  • E1 and E2 are the primary and secondary emf respectively,
  • N1 and N2 are the number of turns in the primary and secondary coils, and
  • V1 and V2 are the primary and secondary voltages.

AC Generator:

Maximum EMF induced = NBAω sin(ωt)

RMS EMF induced = (NBAω)/√2
