Electromagnetism

Learn the principles of magnetism, including flux density and electromagnetic induction.

Prerequisites

This lesson was designed for participants familiar with AC characteristics.

Description

This sixth lesson in the iKNOW Electrical Theory for Troubleshooters Library uses animations and demonstrations to explain the principles of magnetism, including flux density and electromagnetic induction. The lesson also shows how to plot a sine wave using a graph.

Objectives

Describe the principles of magnetism. Describe flux and flux density. Describe how electromagnetic induction takes place. Describe how a magnetic field is generated by passing current through a conductor. Plot a sine wave using a graph.
