Hi guys, I have barely started studying EMI, and already have a question about the nature of the current induced in a bar of conductive material traveling through a magnetic field.
The moving charges inside the bar will experience a Lorentz's force, pushing the negatives on one side of the bar and the positives onto the other.
Now, what does the induced EMF come from? Is the separation of charges causing a flow of electrons and thus a current, or is it caused by the final difference in potential between the two "poles" of the bar, in its "final" state?
I hope the question is clear, but I highly doubt it :)
