Faraday'laws of electromagnetic induction

Faraday's have proposed 2 main Laws,
Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction is also known as law of electromagnetism.

Faraday's first law:-

This law is the base of electric generators and motors.
Faraday's law stated that,
"When ever we place a conductor in a magnetic field which is varying with time then there will induced current in the conductor."
And if conductor is connected to a closed circuit then this current will flow through it.

Explanation:-

If a conductor is placed in a field of magnet, if both conductor and magnet are stationary then there will no induced emf in it. But when we will move magnet away from the conductor then magnetic field will change through conductor and then EMF(electromotive force) will induced in conductor. Even if we keep magnet stationary and move conductor then also emf will induced.

Faraday's Second law:-

We use this law often,
"The EMF induced in a coil is equal to the change of flux(by a magnet or something other) with the time. "
Where E is the induced EMF, and N is the number of turns of coil phi is the flux and t is the time.

Explanation:-

When a current is flowing through the coil then there is flux around the coil, when current will change then flux will also changes. And then EMF will induce in a coil.

The induced EMF could increase by:

1.By increasing the number of turns of coil.
2. By increasing rate of changing flux. by changing current rapidly.
3. By using good core on which coil is wound.

Self Induction, definition explanation formula unit

Self Inductance:-

"Self inductance is the property of coil to oppose change in current flowing through it"

Explanation:-


Consider there is a coil wire and current is flowing through it, whenever the current will change flowing through it, then there will induced emf which is known as self induced emf. And its direction will be opposite to the the current flowing through it. If current is increasing then self induced emf will try to decrease or flow in direction opposite to the current. But if current through the coil is decreasing then the induced emf will try to increase this current or will go in same direction as current is flowing.
In other simple words, Self induce emf will try to oppose in change in current.
This phenomena is known as Self induction.

Formula:-

The formula for self induction could be derive from the formula of induced emf formula.
Where L is the self induction, E is the induced emf and di/dt is the rate of changing current.

From this it is clear that self induction will increase when induced emf will increase and will decrease when rate of changing current will increase.

Unit:- 

Unit of self inductance is Henry(H).
"There will be 1 Henry of self inductance when induced voltage will be one and current will change 1 ampere in one second."
