It was the life before the, discovery of electromagnetic induction (a Revolutionary inventionresults of experiments of scientists Michael Faraday and Joseph, Henry)., , Before the discovery of this spectacular phenomena the only source of, , electric-energy were weak electrolytic cells, capable of supplying very, weak currents that too for short durations only., , Scientist Oersted demonstrated by his experiments that electric currents, can produce (induce) magnetic field in space around it. The reverse of, results of Oersted’s experiments, was proved by the experimental, demonstration of Faraday. The conclusion of these experiments was the, electric current is generated by varying magnetic field., , When Faraday- (relative motion between magnet and wire loop, induces, a current in loop) first demonstrated before the public, he was asked, ‘What is the use of it’. His reply was ‘What is the use of a new born, baby’. Imagine how he could foresee the practical utility of this, phenomenon of EMI. In this chapter, we will study the experiments of, electromagnetic induction and their applications., , THE EXPERIMENTS OF FARADAY AND HENRY, Experiment 1, , Figure shows a coil C, connected to a galvanometer G. When the North-pole, of a bar magnet is pushed towards the coil, the pointer in the galvanometer, deflects, indicating the presence of electric current in the coil. The deflection, lasts as long as the bar magnet is in motion. The galvanometer does, not show any deflection when the magnet is held stationary. When the, , Aakash Educational Services Pvt.

Further, the, deflection (and hence current) is found to be larger when the magnet is pushed towards or pulled away from, the coil faster. Instead, when the bar magnet is held fixed and the coil C, is moved towards or away from, the magnet, the same effects are observed. It shows that it is the relative motion between the magnet and, the coil that is responsible for generation (induction) of electric current in the coil., , Experiment 2, , In Figure the bar magnet is replaced by a second coil C, connected to a battery. The steady current in the, coil C, produces a steady magnetic field. As coil C, is moved towards the coil C, the galvanometer shows, a deflection., , , , Fig.: Current is induced in coil C, due to, motion of the current carrying coil C,., , This indicates that electric current is induced in coil C,. When C, is moved away, the galvanometer shows, a deflection again, but this time in the opposite direction. The deflection lasts as long as coil C, is in motion., When the coil C, is held fixed and C, is moved, the same effects are observed. Again, it is the relative motion, between the coils that induces the electric current., , Experiment 3, , The above two experiments involved relative motion between a magnet and a coil and between two coils,, respectively. Through another experiment, Faraday showed that this relative motion is not an absolute, , requirement. Figure shows two coils C, and C, held stationary. Coil C, is connected to galvanometer G while, the second coil C, is connected to a battery through a tapping key K., , Cc,, , , , , , , , , , Fig.: Experimental set-up for Experiment. 3, Aakash Educational Services Pvt.

The, pointer in the galvanometer returns to zero immediately. If the key is held pressed continuously, there is no, deflection in the galvanometer. When the key is released, a momentary deflection is observed again, but in, the opposite direction. It is also observed that the deflection increases dramatically when an iron rod is inserted, into the coils along their axis., , , , (i) Michael Faraday (1791-1867) An English scientist who discovered electromagnetic induction, laws, of electrolysis, electric motor, electric generator, is widely regarded as the greatest experimental, scientist of nineteenth century., , (ii) Joseph Henry (1797-1878) : American experimental physicist is widely known for invention of, electromagnetic motor, efficient telegraph and discovery of self induction., , (iii) The experiments of Faraday and Henry have led directly to the development of modern day, generators and transformers.
