Module 5:  Electromagnetic induction

Objectives:

After completing this module, students will be able to correctly analyze situations in which an emf is induced by a changing magnetic flux.  They will be able to calculate the magnitude and determine the direction of the emf induced in simple circuits.  Students will be familiar with the concept of self-inductance.  They will able to explain how devices such as electric generators, transformers, maglev trains, magnetic brakes, etc, work, based on Faraday's law.
