Part of JMAG-02 — Electromagnetic Induction & Lenz's Law

Common Traps in EMI Problems

(1) Constant flux \neq zero flux — it means zero EMF (dΦ/dt=0d\Phi/dt = 0). (2) Confusing Φ\Phi (flux) with ε\varepsilon (EMF): flux can be large with zero EMF. (3) For rotating rods, the area swept per unit time is l2ω/2l^2\omega/2 (not l2ωl^2\omega). (4) Lenz's law gives the direction of induced current, not the magnitude. (5) Using the wrong formula: M=kL1L2M = k\sqrt{L_1 L_2} — forgetting kk. (6) In LR circuits: inductor opposes change, so at t=0t = 0 it has zero current (not maximum). (7) Energy in inductor is LI2/2LI^2/2 — don't confuse with LILI or LI2LI^2.
