Why is the motion of a copper plate damped when it is allowed to oscillate between the magnetic pole-pieces? How are Eddy currents involved?

Can anyone explain this to me, in simple terms, why the motion of a copper plate is damped when it is allowed to oscillate between the magnetic pole pieces?

Faraday's Law - When do we know when it is a motional EMF or an induced electric field?

So from what I know, Faraday's law states that when there is a change in magnetic flux, an EMF is induced. This can be explained with motional EMF where when the magnet moves towards the conducting ...

Does the magnetic force has anything to do with induced EMF in Faraday's law?

So according to faraday's law, when there is a change in magnetic flux, there is an induced EMF. My understanding: In the reference frame of the magnet, the charge is moving, hence there is a current. ...

Misunderstanding the right hand screw rule for magnetic fields

I have learned that the right hand screw rule works for your thumb being in the direction of conventional current (positive to negative potential) but also that the right hand screw rule is used for a ...

I don't understand Ampere's circuital law

Since, magnetic field is a vector quantity, two (or more) magnetic fields (when in close proximity) should influence their fields, according to the laws of vector. And by that logic, Ampere's ...

If two charges follow identical, curved paths, at equal velocities, and are equidistant at all times, will they exert magnetic force on each other?

Imagine one charge rotating in a circular orbit about a point, and another charge rotating about another point slightly below the first, tracing out two parallel circles on the outside of a cylinder. ...

General Question about Faraday Disk and a Loop

If we have a constant magnetic field, $B$, perpendicular to a rotating metal disk (essentially Faradays's disk), with some angular frequency, $f$ . Then there will be an emf across the ends of the ...

Why in electrostatics is $dV=-E.dr$ but in electromagnetic induction, $EMF=+E.dS$?

In electrostatics we learned that $$dV=-E.dr$$. I understood the derivation which was used to derive this. Now when I have come to Electromagnetic Induction,I see that when there is a time varying ...

Zero current induced in a loop

Consider the following two cases, Case 1 – A coil moving through a constant magnetic field Case 2 – A conductor moving through a constant magnetic field Now, in Case 1 (a coil moving through a ...
