If we apply a magnetic field to a core saturated by a permanent magnet, what will happen? [closed]

If we apply a magnetic field to a core saturated by permanent magnet, will the magnetic field of the permanent magnet and electromagnet get combined? I mean to say superposition will be applied?

Have there been any experiments in which the Earth's electromagnetic field was used to do work?

Simply speaking using faraday's law to generate electricity with the use of earth's magnetic field. I'm not talking about some revolutionary new way of generating electricity that would end our energy ...

Why armature is being rotated in DC generator?

I am wondering about why armatures are being rotated instead of being static? The magnetic flux will still cut the armature windings and because of this induced current will be generated. So, why it ...

A doubt about the topic of motional emf from Griffiths

Consider a closed rectangular loop of wire, which is moved to the right with a velocity ${\vec v}$ w.r.t a magnet that provides a static, uniform magnetic field $\vec B=-B\hat{z}$ over a region as ...

Metal/good conductor frame in a changing magnetic field

Imagine that we put a metal/good conductor frame into a changing magnetic field. Due to the fact that this is an electromagnetic induction phenomenon, an induced EMF can be measured between the two ...

Force on a charged particle due to varying magnetic field [closed]

Magnetic field in a cylindrical region is varying as B = kt/r, ('k' is a positive constant, 't' is time and 'r' is distance from the center). B is directed upwards perpendicular to the cylindrical ...

How does the Poynting vector know who is the primary and who is the secondary of a transformer?

I've read in several places that the Poynting vector is directed from the primary to the secondary of a transformer (we assume here that the primary is the winding that provide the AC energy, while ...

Radio Waves and the Lorentz Force?

Is the Lorentz Force involved when the EM wave intersects the receiving antenna? I.e. induces EMF on electrons in the antenna conductor? I use the RHR with index finger $\vec v$ pointing in the ...

INDUCTANCE depends on the number of turns in a solenoid. Is this the case with RELUCTANCE as well?

The total flux ($\Phi$ ) through an solenoidal inductor of length $l$ and $N$ turns is proportional to the current through the inductor and the inductance $L$ of the inductor according to $$\Phi =L \...
