epsilon=-\frac{d \Phi}{dt} where epsilon is the emf. the emf produces a current in the oppostite direction to the loop which gives a magnetic field opposing ther external field B. my notes then say

\frac{d \Phi}{dt}>0 \Rightarrow \frac{d \Phi_{Induced}}{dt}<0 but i don't understand this statement, can someone explain it please?

Changing magnetic flux produces the changing current in the loop. This changing current produces changing magnetic flux which links the loop resulting changing induces magnetic flux in the opposite direction. One is taken as positive and the other is taken as negative.
 


sorry what?

is it basically lenz's law yeah?

the changing magnetic flux causes an electric field round the wire which induces a current round the loop, this current is changing with time and in turn produces a changing magnetic field in the oppostie direction to the original external field and so the induced flux has the opposite sign to the flux of the external field?
 
Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
