AI Thread Summary
Counter-EMF (CEMF) in a solenoid system is primarily generated by the motion of a stationary magnet within it, as well as the inductance of the coil. When the solenoid is powered on or off, the change in current creates a variation in the magnetic field, leading to induced EMF that opposes the applied voltage. The initial voltage spike occurs as the current through the coil cannot change instantaneously, resulting in a brief higher voltage before stabilizing. This behavior is fundamentally linked to the principles of inductance, where the opposing EMF arises from changes in magnetic flux. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for analyzing the system's electrical behavior.

Hi

I have a Solenoid(No core) and a small magnet that is stationary in it.
The Solenoid is powered off/on. What would cause Counter-EMF if the Solenoid is on/off?
Only the motion of the magnet?

What are other factors would generated EMF in my coil?
Other than the magnet's motion + the power input of course :P

The inductance of the coil perhaps.

Do explain!
 
Another thing, the motion of the magnet is a result of the attraction or repulsion of the two.
Only AFTER the force is applied the motion starts. So CEMF is a result of the reaction, well on of the results motion is too a result :)

In fact! Motion is a result of the magnet + electromagnet's attraction/repulsion and CEMF is a result of that motion.

When turned on the current through the coil inductance can't change instantly. The coil voltage will initially be higher. As the current builds the voltage will fall to it's final value. During that (brief?) time the voltage is higher than normal. Can that be distinguished from CEMF?
 
Well I just learned "Inductance" as: The opposing EMF that is generated by changing current, thus caused a change in the magnetic field = change in the magnetic flux thus INDUCED EMF opposes the applied EMF.

I assume this is what you meant? "L"?
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
