Why are induction motor cores laminated to prevent eddy currents?

The permeable iron alloy cores of induction motor rotors are formed from thin laminated sheets, designed to prevent eddy current flow and thus "reduce losses", but isn't the whole point of ...

How to find the points between which EMF is induced in a loop with resistors?

I recently came across a problem on Faraday's law, which had multiple resistors. The circuit looked something like this, with the loop rotating clockwise. Personally, I felt that there would be three ...

How can the induced voltage be proportional to the frequency?

According to Faraday's Law, in coupled inductors, the magnitude of the induced voltage at the secondary coil is proportional to primary power source's frequency (V2 = w x I1 x M). On the other hand, ...

What is the EMF induced between two points in a closed wire loop?

Farday's law says if I change the magnetic flux through a closed loop an emf would appear. Between what two points is the EMF calculated? Let's say that my calculations give me an E=−dΦdt=10V. What ...

Possible contradiction between Ohm's Law, KCL, KVL and Faraday's Law of Induction?

Let's say, we have a loop of wire of length \$L>0\$. Let's say, hypothetically, it is a loop of non-ideal wire. That means that the wire has a resistance per unit length \$ρ>0\$. Let's further ...

If the self-induced EMF in an inductor is 180° out of phase with source voltage, shouldn't they cancel out and net voltage should become zero?

I know that inductor opposes the change in magnetic flux linked with it. In case of an ac sinusoidal voltage applied across a pure inductor, the emf induced across the inductor is equal and opposite ...

How do we reduce or nullify the back current from the wheel motors of the modern electric vehicles?

As expected, this EMF opposes the voltage of the source that created it; that is, the motor becomes a generator as soon as it is turned on, and the opposing (or counter, or back) EMF will increase ...

A question about Faraday’s law of induction for a closed path

As far as I understand, Faraday’s law states that a varying magnetic field through a closed path creates an E-field along the closed path. And the integral of this field we call electric potential or ...
