1. A bar magnet is a rectangular object made of ferromagnetic material that produces a magnetic field. 2. Key properties of bar magnets include having north and south poles that attract or repel, inducing magnetism in other materials, and having magnetic lines of force that emanate and flow between poles. 3. Fleming's right and left hand rules describe the direction of induced current in a wire based on the direction of motion and the magnetic field.

PROPERTIES OF BAR MAGNET

BAR MAGNET
A bar magnet is a rectangular object that has a magnetic field. It is usually made of iron or steel, but it can also be made of any ferromagnetic substance or a ferromagnetic composite. A bar magnet is almost always a permanent magnet, meaning that it will retain its magnetic field for a significant period of time without the use of a supplied electric current.

PROPERTIES
Directive Property- When a magnet is suspended freely, it always orients itself in north-south direction.

Attractive Property- A magnet can attract small pieces of iron, cobalt, steel, alnico, etc.

Isolated poles do not exist- If a magnet is cut into small pieces, each piece by itself is a magnet.

PROPERTIES
Like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other.

Property of induction- A magnet can induce magnetism in substances like soft iron, cobalt, etc.

MAGNETIC LINES OF FORCE

MAGNETIC LINES
To further describe and work with magnet phenomena, lines are used to represent the force existing in the area surrounding a magnet. These lines, called MAGNETIC LINES OF FORCE, do not actually exist but are imaginary lines used to illustrate and describe the pattern of the magnetic field. The magnetic lines of force are assumed to emanate from the north pole of a magnet, pass through surrounding space, and enter the south pole. The lines of force then travel inside the magnet from the south pole to the north pole, thus completing a closed loop.

HOW TO PLOT
When two magnetic poles are brought close together, the mutual attraction or repulsion of the poles produces a more complicated pattern than that of a single magnet. These magnetic lines of force can be plotted by placing a compass at various points throughout the magnetic field, or they can be roughly illustrated by the use of iron filings as before. A diagram of magnetic poles placed close together is shown in figure

PROPERTIES
1. Magnetic lines of force are continuous and will always form closed loops. 2. Magnetic lines of force will never cross one another. 3. Parallel magnetic lines of force traveling in the same direction repel one another. Parallel magnetic lines of force traveling in opposite directions tend to unite with each other and form into single lines traveling in a direction determined by the magnetic poles creating the lines of force. 4. Magnetic lines of force tend to shorten themselves. Therefore, the magnetic lines of force existing between two unlike poles cause the poles to be pulled together. 5. Magnetic lines of force pass through all materials, both magnetic and nonmagnetic. 6. Magnetic lines of force always enter or leave a magnetic material at right angles to the surface.

FLEMINGS RIGHT HAND RULE

RIGHT HAND RULE


Fleming's right hand rule tells us that if we take our right hand and extend the thumb, and also the index and the middle finger such that they are all at right angles to each other, we can discover the direction of the current induced in the wire of the generator. We'll have to know the direction of the motion of the conductor, and the direction of the magnetic field to do this.

F F F I B L

F=BIL sin

FLEMINGS LEFT HAND RULE

LEFT HAND RULE


Stretch the forefinger, middle finger and thumb of your right hand mutually perpendicular to each other. The thumb represents the direction of motion of conductor and forefinger gives direction of magnetic then the middle finger gives the direction of induced current.

DYNAMO

DYNAMO
A dynamo (electric generator) is a machine which generates electricity by using the principle of electromagnetic induction. It converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

TYPES OF GENERATORS (DYNAMO)


There are two types of dynamos Alternating current generators (AC generator)

Direct current generator (DC generator)
