Physics Chap 14 Chapter Electromagnetic Induction In Chapter 13 you learned that an electric current produces a magnetic field. It 14 seems reasonable to expect that the reverse might also be true—that a magnetic field can induce an electric current. How can this be achieved? What properties of the magnetic field will induce an electric current? Is it sufficient to have a strong magnetic field near a conductor for an electric current to be produced? By the end of this chapter, you will be able to answer these questions. You will also In this chapter, you will be understand how the principles of electromagnetic induction apply to huge elec- able to tric generators like those shown in Figure 1.

Why is it reasonable to think that a magnetic field might induce an electric current? 2. Why do you think some scientists, like Ampère, sometimes make impor- tant observations but fail to investigate them in detail? 3. (a) Why is Joseph Henry not given credit for the explanation of electro- magnetic induction? Do you think this is fair? (b) Give several reasons why the scientific community gives credit to the person who publishes findings first and not to the one who discovers them first. Throughout this chapter, note any changes in your ideas as you learn new con- cepts and develop your skills. 506 Chapter 14 Try This Activity A Demonstration of Electromagnetic Induction Often, scientists will make certain observations when doing experiments and miss the significance of what they have seen, as Ampère did. There are many possible reasons for this. Your teacher may demonstrate or allow you to investigate the following electromagnetic phenomena, and it is your task to make detailed observations of what has occurred. • Place a soft iron bar inside a coil with many loops, as shown in Figure 3. Connect the coil to a galvanometer or milliammeter. • Place the N-pole of a bar magnet in contact with the soft iron bar and observe what happens to the galvanometer (Figure 4(a)). Leave the N-pole in contact for a few seconds before removing it. • Remove the N-pole of the bar magnet from the soft iron bar and observe what happens to the galvanometer (Figure 4(b)). • Repeat the above procedure using the S-pole. (a) Describe what happens when the N-pole is moved toward the Figure 1 soft iron bar, while it is left in contact with the soft iron bar, and when it is moved away from the soft iron bar. (b) How did your observations change when the S-pole was used? (c) Can these observations be explained by what you know about electromagnetism or is further study required?

    MEMOIR JOSEPH HENRY. SIMON NEWCOMB. BEAD BEFORE THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OP SCIENCES, APRIL 21, 1880. (1) BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF JOSEPH HENRY. In presenting to the Academy the following notice of its late lamented President the writer feels that an apology is due for the imperfect manner in which he has been obliged to perform the duty assigned him. The very richness of the material has been a source of embarrassment. Few have any conception of the breadth of the field occupied by Professor Henry's researches, or of the number of scientific enterprises of which he was either the originator or the effective supporter. What, under the cir- cumstances, could be said within a brief space to show what the world owes to him has already been so well said by others that it would be impracticable to make a really new presentation without writing a volume. The Philosophical Society of this city has issued two notices which together cover almost the whole ground that the writer feels competent to occupy. The one is a personal biography—the affectionate and eloquent tribute of an old and attached friend; the other an exhaustive analysis of his scientific labors by an honored member of the society well known for his philosophic acumen.* The Regents of the Smithsonian Institution made known their indebtedness to his administration in the memorial services held in his honor in the Halls of Congress. Under these circumstances the onl}*- practicable course has seemed to be to give a condensed resume of Professor Henry's life and works, by which any small occasional gaps in previous notices might be filled.

  • Alexander Graham Bell 1847-1922
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XXIII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL 1847-1922 BY HAROLD S. OSBORNE PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1943 It was the intention that this Biographical Memoir would be written jointly by the present author and the late Dr. Bancroft Gherardi. The scope of the memoir and plan of work were laid out in cooperation with him, but Dr. Gherardi's untimely death prevented the proposed collaboration in writing the text. The author expresses his appreciation also of the help of members of the Bell family, particularly Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, and of Mr. R. T. Barrett and Mr. A. M. Dowling of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company staff. The courtesy of these gentlemen has included, in addition to other help, making available to the author historic documents relating to the life of Alexander Graham Bell in the files of the National Geographic Society and in the Historical Museum of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL 1847-1922 BY HAROLD S. OSBORNE Alexander Graham Bell—teacher, scientist, inventor, gentle- man—was one whose life was devoted to the benefit of mankind with unusual success. Known throughout the world as the inventor of the telephone, he made also other inventions and scientific discoveries of first importance, greatly advanced the methods and practices for teaching the deaf and came to be admired and loved throughout the world for his accuracy of thought and expression, his rigid code of honor, punctilious courtesy, and unfailing generosity in helping others.

  • Gustavus A. Hyde, Professor Espy's Volunteers, and the Development Ol
    Bruce Sinclair Gustavus A. Hyde, Case Institute of Technology Professor Espy's volunteers, Cleveland, Ohio and the development ol systematic weather observation In December 1842, James P. Espy, meteorologist, some- time professor of mathematics for the U. S. Navy but better known as the "Storm King" for his theories on the cause of storms, issued a public call for volunteer weather observers. Addressed to the "Friends of Science," via the medium of newspapers throughout the country, Espy requested all those interested in weather phenom- ena to record meteorological data in their own localities and send him the information for use in testing his weather theories.1 One of the readers of Professor Espy's circular was Gustavus A. Hyde, a seventeen year old student at the Framingham, Massachusetts Academy. Fired with en- thusiasm for the new project "I wrote to him," Hyde later recalled, "and in return received blank slips on which to take my readings."2 He purchased a ther- mometer and together with a barn weather vane and a home-made rain gauge he began making a record of the weather. Hyde's zeal lasted for well over half a century, a record perhaps unmatched by any of the other volunteers who answered the call for their serv- ices. During the period of Hyde's career, meteorology advanced from the empirical compilation of amateur observations to a science, based on the interpretation of data systematically collected by professional meteor- ologists. Gustavus A. Hyde Espy's call for volunteers came at a time of particular interest in weather. His own theory of storms was in sharp conflict with that of William Redfield, another was triumphantly received in France.

Edited by Raymond Flood, Mark McCartney and Andrew Whitaker. 376 pp. Oxford University Press, 2008. $110. Lord Kelvin, especially in the last decades of his long life, was a genuine celebrity. Beyond his achievements in science, he had gained prominence for his forays into industrial engineering—his efforts were crucial to the success of the transatlantic telegraph cable—and had established himself as one of the earliest examples of what we might call a technologist, a man who applied scientific principles to commercial ventures. He made himself wealthy in the process, rose to the peerage and traveled widely. His visits to North America were noted on the front page of the New York Times and other newspapers, and reporters eagerly sought out his views—which he was equally eager to supply—on science, industry, commerce, even politics. On his death in 1907, at the age of 83, he was interred next to Isaac Newton in Westminster Abbey, to reside forever alongside perhaps the most supreme mind of science. But how quickly his star faded! To be sure, he died just as the emergence of radioactivity, quantum theory and relativity transformed physics, but still, we remember and celebrate such contemporaries of Kelvin as James Clerk Maxwell, Michael Faraday, James Prescott Joule and Ludwig Boltzmann. In his day, Kelvin was far better known than any of them, but in 1999, when the U.K. Institute of Physics polled its members for the top physicists of all time, Kelvin didn't even crack the top 30.

    5 – Magnets and electromagnetismPHY167 Spring 2021 Magnetism In our modern everyday life, the phenomenon of magnetism is associated with iron that is attracted by permanent magnets that can also be made of iron compounds. Historically, magnetism was observed even before the mankind started producing metals. Naturally occuring magnetite, one of iron oxides, showed magnetic properties and it was used to build a navigational device compass. Compass is a small magnet that points to the North with this north pole and to the South with its south pole. N North Rotation axis North pole of North the compass South pole of South the compass S South Earth One can speak about the magnetic filed lines that go from the South to the North and make the compass orientate along them.
