Question

A paradox associated with this law is exemplified by the rocking plates experiment, and explained microscopically using the radial component of the Lorentz force. This law is derived by taking the circulation of Lorentz’s law. Thin sheets of magnetic materials are added to cores to reduce eddy currents predicted by this law. (10[2])Lenz’s law adds a negative sign to this law, which relates rate (10[1])of change in magnetic flux to the EMF on a conductive loop. (10[1])This law governs transformers and electric generators. (-5[1])For 10 points, what law governing electromagnetic induction is named after the British physicist who also names the SI unit of capacitance? ■END■ (10[1]0[2])

ANSWER: Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction [or Faraday’s law; accept Maxwell-Faraday equation; reject “Faraday’s law of electrolysis”]
