Generation of Alternating emf


Consider a rectangular coil of N turns rotating in a uniform magnetic field with an angular velocity ω radian/second about X-axis in its own plain as shown in fig.3.6. Let фm be the maximum flux perpendicular to the axis of rotation, when the plain of the coil coincides with the X-axis.

Faraday’s Laws of Electromagnetic Induction

It is well known that whenever an electric current flows through a conductor, a magnetic field is generated around the conductor. And the converse of this is also true i.e. when a magnetic field around a conductor moves relative to the conductor, it produce a flow of electrons in the conductor. This phenomenon whereby an emf and hence current is induce in any conductor is cut by a magnetic flux is known as electromagnetic induction.
