This video is about induced EMF in a coil that is turning in a magnetic field.

00:06.000 --> 00:10.000
We'll discuss two different cases.

00:10.000 --> 00:17.000
First, when the coil is rotating clockwise or anticlockwise, in the plane of the paper or screen,

00:17.000 --> 00:20.000
and second, when the coil is flipped.

00:20.000 --> 00:24.000
You can picture the first case like this.

00:24.000 --> 00:29.000
The direction of the magnetic field is into the page or screen.

00:29.000 --> 00:34.000
It doesn't matter whether we rotate the coil clockwise or anticlockwise.

00:34.000 --> 00:38.000
As long as it remains in the plane of the paper or screen,

00:38.000 --> 00:43.000
the number of field lines that cross the coil is unchanged.

00:43.000 --> 00:48.000
As a result, magnetic flux through the coil is also unchanged.

00:48.000 --> 00:52.000
The formula that expresses Faraday's law tells us

00:52.000 --> 00:57.000
that induced EMF is a result of changing magnetic flux.

00:57.000 --> 01:04.000
Since there is no change in magnetic flux, no EMF is induced in the coil.

01:04.000 --> 01:08.000
The second case is when the coil is flipped.

01:08.000 --> 01:12.000
If it is not fully clear what flipping means here,

01:12.000 --> 01:18.000
picture the coil being rotated by 180 degrees about this axis.

01:18.000 --> 01:25.000
After the coil is flipped, it ends up in the position that you see on the right-hand side.

01:25.000 --> 01:29.000
Let's consider this situation from the coil's perspective.

01:29.000 --> 01:36.000
What practically happens is that the direction of the magnetic field through the coil is reversed.

01:36.000 --> 01:41.000
So we take the magnetic flux through the coil to be phi before it is flipped,

01:41.000 --> 01:46.000
then the flux through the coil after it is flipped is negative phi.

01:46.000 --> 01:52.000
The change in flux through the coil is final flux minus initial flux,

01:52.000 --> 01:58.000
so negative phi minus phi, which gives us negative 2 phi.

01:58.000 --> 02:01.000
Let's apply Faraday's law.

02:01.000 --> 02:04.000
Since the change in flux is negative 2 phi,

02:04.000 --> 02:09.000
we get that the induced EMF is equal to negative N

02:09.000 --> 02:14.000
times negative 2 phi divided by delta T.

02:14.000 --> 02:24.000
Simplifying we get 2 times N times phi divided by delta T for the induced EMF in the coil.

02:24.000 --> 02:31.000
Therefore, when we flip the coil in the field, there is an induced EMF in the coil.

02:31.000 --> 02:37.000
This wraps up our discussion of induced EMF in a coil that is turning in a magnetic field

02:37.000 --> 02:42.000
and concludes the final video of subtopic 11.1.

02:42.000 --> 02:50.000
In the first video of subtopic 11.2, we'll start learning about alternating current generators.
