Step-Up Transformer Conceptual Problem
Homework Statement Even for an ideal transformer, we can't get "something for nothing". If this transformer steps up the voltage, what must be decreased? a) power b) current c) resistance The Attempt at a Solution Ep/Np=Es/Ns I believe it's power or current, but these two are related. So...- longcatislong

Quick Conceptual Question on Lenz's Law
So, the coil needs to generate a current in response to a changing external magnetic field. The current generated by the coil will in turn create an induced magnetic field. What affects the strength of the current/magentic field is the resistance of the coil... yes...?- longcatislong

Quick Conceptual Question on Lenz's Law
Homework Statement A magnetic field is uniform throughout a region of space, but increases from 0 to 0.14 T in 2.4 s. A circular coil (of diameter 19 cm) is placed in a fixed orientation in this region such as to receive maximum flux. It takes 4171.91 turns to generate an emf of 6.9 V What...- longcatislong
