Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFCONCEPT:
- Eddy Current: When a changing magnetic flux is applied to a bulk piece of conducting material then circulating currents is called eddy currents are induced in the material.
- Because the resistance of the bulk conductor is usually low, eddy currents often have large magnitudes and heat the conductor.
EXPLANATION:
- Eddy currents are the currents induced in solid metallic masses when magnetic flux threading through them changes.
- Eddy current is also known as“Focault current”.
- Eddy current also opposes the change in magnetic flux, so there is given by Lenz’s law.
