    Are Eddy Current Forces Always Opposing Motion?

    Okay I think I understand this now. Eddy currents are only created when the magnetic flux is changing, correct? And when the magnetic flux is changing, will the Eddy currents always have a net force in the direction opposing motion? (That's what I initially wanted to know, and I don't...

    Are Eddy Current Forces Always Opposing Motion?

    Hello, I'm not sure where to post this so I hope this is the right spot. It's not a homework question, just a concept I need to get straight before an exam ;) If I'm pulling a sheet of metal through a uniform magnetic field (which is perpendicular to the sheets motion), Eddy currents are...
