    Induction Project
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the induced voltage in a toroidal coil as a magnet moves through its center at a speed of 5 m/s. The main challenge is determining the appropriate area for applying Faraday's equation to find magnetic flux, given that the flux density changes as the magnet moves. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding whether to use the top area of the circular rod or the cross-sectional area for calculations. The complexity arises from the orientation of the wires, which are arranged in a circular manner, complicating the determination of induced current. Ultimately, the goal is to accurately compute the induced voltage as the magnet moves through the toroid.

N is up, and S is down. Simply a coil of wire in a rod shape goes around the magnet

How do i apply the faradays equation on it. I know the rate the magnet moving up, let's say 5m/s. The problem I'm facing what area do i choose to find the flux on, because if i know this, I can find flux.

Remember, although the flux lines are passing to the area, my flux density is changing therefore, there will be a change in flux thus induced voltage, but I don't understand what area to choose, the top area of the circular rod or the cross section?

you can say the magnet is moving through the center of a Toroid. I need to find the induced voltage as the magnet moves up at variable speed [as a function] through the Toroid on which the wires are wraped around a magnetic core

but don't understand how to find the curent...is it even possible? I can't have the coil to suroudn the magnet..its kinda impossible from the deisgn

actually it looks zero because of the orientation of the wire..the wires are bascially circulars and are grouped together to form a toroid. I need to find the induced voltage through tem
 
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
