Current electricity and ohm's law(Current electricity) :- •What is current? Rate of flow of electric charge with time through any cross section of a wire is called current. It is denoted by I . Thus if charge "dq" flows through a wire in small time "dt" then electric current through wire is given by :                                             I=dq/dt  1 ampere = 1coulomb/1 second  1A=C/s •Ampere :-                                                           The current Through a wire is called one ampere if one coulomb charge is flow through Any cross section of wire in one second   •Ohm's law:- Ohm’s principal discovery was that the amount of electric current through a metal conductor...

Eddy currents:-        The current induced in a conductor (metal sheet or metal block)  in form of clesed loops .these loops are called eddy currents because these currents look like Eddies or which pods. These current are also known as focarlt current.  Experiments :-   https://instagram.com/sachin_dreamboy?igshid=1647004f4d5r6 Explanation :- When the circuit is suritered  in, the current shorts growing through the solenoid. As the current grows, the magnetic field lines along the axis of the solenoid and hence the magnetic flux through the dix also increases from zero yo some finite value. Due to this, induced current are produced in the disc and the disc is converted into a small magnet. If the upper face of the soft iron core acquires N polarity in accordance with lenz's lawer face of the disc acquires N polarity due to repulsion face between the upper face of the soft iron core and the lower face of the disc ,the disc is throw...

Lenz's Law | AC | physics

History of Lenz's Law:- Faraday could only tell ,when and how much induced emf is produced. It was the Russian scientist H. F. E lenz who gave us in 1833 the direction of the induced emf. His experiments are known as lenz law.  Explanation :- Connect a galvanometer to coil. Take a magnet NS and move into the coil with it's north pole downlwords. The deflection in the galvanometer is towards left which indicates that the current in the coil flows in anticlockwise direction as seen from above. Hence upper force of the coil has acquired north polarity due to flow of induced current through it.  If we move the magnet out of the coil ,the deflection us towards right, indicates that the current is upper face of the coil flows in clockwise direction as seen from above, hence upper face of the coil has aquired north polarity due to flow if induced current through it.  Similarly, if the magnet is moved into or out of the coil with its aouth pole downward ...

The results of Faraday's Experiments on electromagnetic interaction are known as faraday's law  of electromagnetic induction.  1.Faraday's First law of electromagnetic induction :- Whenever magnetic flux linked with a circuit changes, induced EMF is produced. The induced emf losts as long as change in magnetic flux continue.  2. Faraday's second Law of electomagnetic Induction :- The magnitude of the emf is directly proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic flux linked with circuit.                MATHEMATICALLY                 ε  ∝ dΦ/dt                                 ε= - kdΦ/dt  Here - k is constant of proportionality .In SI k=1 ,-ve sign indicates that the induced emf gas got opposing nature ie direction of flow of current due to induced emf is such that i...

Conductors,insulators and dielectrics |electostatic | physics

Conductors, insulators and Dielectrics  (Electrostatic)   • What is conductor ? Conductors are the Materials or substances which allow electricity to flow through them. They conduct electricity because they allow electrons to flow easily inside them from atom to atom. Also, conductors allow the transmission of heat or light from one source to another. Metals,humans, earth,  and animals are all conductors. This is the reason we get electric shocks! Moreover, the human body is a good conductor. So it provides a resistance-free path for the current to flow from wire to body. Conductors have free electrons on its surface which allow current to pass through easily. This is the reason why conductors are able to conduct electricity . Example :- • Material such as silver is the best conductor of electricity. But, it is costly and so, we don’t use silver in industries and transmission of electricity. • Copper, Brass, Steel, Gold, and Alumini...

  Electric Flux (Electrostatics)     Introduction :- Electric Flux is defined as a number of electric field lines, passing per unit area. It is another physical quantity to measure the strength of electric field and frame the basics of electrostatics. It is also defined as the product of electric field and surface area projected in a direction perpendicular to the electric field. Let’s understand what the term flux actually means, with an example:-      Suppose there a liquid flowing with velocity ‘v’, through tiny surface dS, in a normal direction with respect to the surface. The rate of flow of water will be volume passing through the area per unit time that is v dS. Volume = Area × Length Differentiating the above relation with respect to time, we get d Volume/ dt = dS × d length/ dt Flow of liquid = dS × v where dS is a surface area perpen • Some Important board exam level question answers :- Q. 1) Define electric f...
