 Introduction

• Magnetic flux is a fundamental concept in

the realm of electromagnetism, serving as
a key component in understanding the
interactions between magnetic fields and
surfaces. the concept of magnetic flux
emerges as a crucial player, unraveling
the mysteries of electromagnetic
induction and the behavior of magnetic
fields.
• magnetic flux is a measure of the
quantity of magnetic field lines that
pass through a given surface. This
concept becomes particularly
significant when exploring phenomena
such as Faraday's Law of
Electromagnetic Induction, where
changes in magnetic flux induce
electromotive forces in conductors,
giving rise to the generation of electric
currents.
• The magnetic flux experienced by a
surface is influenced by factors such as the
strength of the magnetic field, the
orientation of the surface relative to the
field lines, and the area of the surface. We
will uncover its significances in
application
 Magnetic Flux (Φ)

1.Definition:-Magnetic flux is a measure of

the quantity of magnetic field lines passing
through a given surface. It provides a way to
quantify the magnetic field's influence on a
surface and is a key concept in understanding
electromagnetic phenomena, particularly in
the context of electromagnetic induction.
2.Formula:-The magnetic flux (Φ) through a
surface is mathematically expressed by the
formula:- Φ=B⋅A⋅cos(θ)

3.Explanation of Terms:
• A) Phi(Φ):- Represents the magnetic flux
measured in Weber (Wb).
• It quantifies the magnetic field's effect on a
surface in terms of the number of magnetic
field lines passing through the surface.
• B (Magnetic Field Strength):-Denotes the
strength or magnitude of the magnetic field.
•Measured in Tesla (T) in the International
System of Units (SI).
•C) A (Area): Stands for the area of the
surface through which the magnetic field
lines pass.
•Measured in square meters (m²).
 Unit & Dimensions Of
Magnetic Flux

1.Unit of Magnetic Flux:- The SI unit of

magnetic flux is the Weber (Wb), named after
the German physicist Wilhelm Weber. One
Weber is equivalent to one Tesla (T)
multiplied by one square meter (m²).

1Wb=1T⋅m2

2.Dimension of Magnetic Flux:The dimension

of magnetic flux can be derived from its
definition. = [Φ]=[B]⋅[A]⋅cos(θ)

Dimensions - [Magnetic Flux]=[Magnetic Field]⋅[Area]

=M L^2 t^2 A^-1

3.Examples Related To Magnetic Flux -

• Magnetic Flux Through a Coil

• Magnetic Flux Through a Closed Surface:
 Properties Of Magnetic
Field

• Properties of magnetic flux

• Magnetic flux always forms a closed
loop.
• Magnetic flux never intersects with one
another.
• Magnetic flux is a scalar quantity.
• Magnetic flux starts from the north pole
and ends at the south pole.
 Gauss Law For
Magnetism

1.The law states that there are no magnetic

monopoles (isolated magnetic charges) -
magnetic field lines always form closed loops.
If you enclose any region in space with a
closed surface, the total magnetic flux
through that surface is always zero.

∮B⋅dA=0
Here,
• B is the magnetic field vector,
• dA is the vector representing a differential
area element on the closed surface,
• ∮∮ denotes the surface integral over the
closed surface.
 Implication Of Gauss law
For Magnetism

1.Absence of Magnetic Monopoles: Gauss's Law

for Magnetism implies that magnetic
monopoles do not exist. Unlike electric charges,
which can exist as isolated positive or negative
charges (monopoles), magnetic poles always
come in pairs (North and South). If you were to
break a magnet into two pieces, each piece
would still have a North and South pole.

2.Conservation of Magnetic Flux: The law

reflects the conservation of magnetic flux.
Magnetic field lines do not originate from or
terminate at isolated points; they always form
continuous loops. Therefore, the net magnetic
flux through any closed surface is always zero.

3.Application in Magnetic Shielding: The law is

crucial in understanding and designing magnetic
shielding devices. Materials with high magnetic
permeability can be used to create shields that
redirect magnetic field lines, providing protection
for sensitive equipment or preventing
interference.
 Relation Between Magnetic
Flux And Faraday's Law
1.Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction
establishes a direct connection between
changes in magnetic flux and the induction of
electromotive force (emf) in a closed circuit.
This law is formulated by Michael Faraday.

2.Faraday's Law Statement:

• Faraday's Law states that the induced
electromotive force (ε) in a closed loop is
equal to the negative rate of change of
magnetic flux (Φ) through the loop with
respect to time (dΦ/dt).
• Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Ε= -N(dΦ/dt)

3.Connection to Magnetic Flux:

• When the magnetic flux through a closed
loop changes, it induces an emf in the loop.

• The negative sign indicates that the induced

emf opposes the change in magnetic flux, in
accordance with Lenz's Law.

Applications And Roles Of
Magnetic Flux
1.Transformers:
Role: Magnetic flux is essential in transformers
for transferring electrical energy between
coils.
Application: When alternating current (AC)
flows through the primary coil, it produces a
changing magnetic flux. This changing flux
induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the
secondary coil, allowing for voltage
transformation.

2.Generators:
Role: Magnetic flux is fundamental in
generators for the generation of electrical
power.
Application: As a coil rotates in a magnetic
field, it experiences a changing magnetic flux.
This changing flux induces an EMF in the coil,
generating electrical power.

3.Magnetic Shielding:
Application: Materials with high magnetic
permeability, such as mu-metal, are used to
create shields that redirect magnetic field lines
and reduce the magnetic flux penetrating a
specific region.
 Magnetic Flux Through A
Coil

A) Magnetic Flux (ΦΦ) Linked with a Coil:

Magnetic flux is a measure of the total magnetic
field passing through a given area. For a coil, the
magnetic flux is expressed as:
1.Φ=N*B*A*cos(angle)
2.Φ: Magnetic Flux (measured in Weber, Wb)
3.N: Number of Turns in the coil
4.B: Magnetic Field Strength (measured in Tesla T)
5.A: Area through which the magnetic field passes
(measured in square meters, m²)
6.θ: Angle between the magnetic field lines and
the normal to the coil's surface

B) Components of the Formula:

Number of Turns (N):
Represents the number of loops or turns in the
coil. More turns enhance the induction effect as
each turn contributes to the total magnetic flux.
•Magnetic Field Strength (B):
•Indicates the strength of the magnetic field.
Higher magnetic field strength results in more
magnetic flux linked with the coil.
•Area (A):Denotes the perpendicular area through
which the magnetic field lines pass. A larger area
allows for more magnetic field lines to intersect
the coil, increasing the magnetic flux.
 Diagram & Graph
Of Magnetic Flux
Through A Coil

• Magnetic flux through a coil of the area, A.

• The magnetic flux (ϕ) through a coil varies

with time t as shown in the diagram
 Mathematical Examples Of
Magnetic Flux
• Example 1: Consider a circular coil with a radius
of 0.02 m and 100 turns. The coil is placed in a
uniform magnetic field of strength 0.5 T.
Calculate the magnetic flux through the coil
when the magnetic field is perpendicular to the
plane of the coil.

• Solution: Given = Radius of the coil (r) = 0.02 m

• Number of turns (N) = 100
• Magnetic field strength (B) = 0.5 T
• Angle between the magnetic field and the
normal to the coil (θ) = 0° (perpendicular)
Using the formula
Φ=N⋅B⋅A⋅cos(Thetha),Φ=N⋅B⋅A⋅cos(θ), where A is
the area of the coil, we can find the magnetic flux:
A=πr2 . R=0.02m
Φ=100×0.5×π×0.0004
Φ≈0.157Wb

• So, the magnetic flux through the coil is

approximately 0.157 Weber.
 Practical Experiments
About Magnetic Flux
Experiment: Verification of Faraday's Law

Objective: To investigate the relationship

between the rate of change of magnetic flux and
the induced electromotive force (EMF) in a coil.
Materials:
Coil (solenoid)
Bar magnet
Galvanometer
Ammeter
Connecting wires
Stopwatch
Meter scale
Procedure:
Connect the coil to the galvanometer and
ammeter.
Place the coil and the bar magnet on a horizontal
surface.
Use the meter scale to measure the initial
position of the coil with respect to the bar
magnet.
Quickly move the bar magnet towards and away
from the coil, repeating the motion at regular
intervals.
• Record the induced current in the
galvanometer and the time taken for each
motion using the stopwatch.
• Repeat the experiment with different speeds
of motion and distances between the coil and
the magnet.
• Explanation: According to Faraday's Law,
the induced EMF (E) is proportional to the rate
of change of magnetic flux
(Φdtd ).The magnetic flux (Φ) is Φ=B⋅A⋅cos(θ),
where B is the magnetic field strength, A is the
area of the coil, and θ is the angle between the
magnetic field and the normal to the coil.
• By moving the magnet towards and away
from the coil, the magnetic flux through the
coil changes, leading to the induction of current.
The experiment aims to verify the
relationship between the rate of change of
magnetic flux and the induced EMF.
• Observations and Analysis:
• Record the induced current and time for
each motion.
• Plot a graph of induced EMF (current) against
the rate of change of magnetic flux
(inversely proportional to time).
• Significance:
• Validates Faraday's Law of
Electromagnetic Induction.
• Demonstrates the dependence of induced EMF
on the rate of change of magnetic flux.
• Reinforces the concept that a changing
magnetic field induces an electromotive force in
a coil.
 Characteristics Of
Magnetic Field

1.Direction of Magnetic Field Lines:

•While magnetic flux itself does not have a direction, it is
influenced by the direction of the magnetic field lines. The
magnetic field lines, representing the direction of the magnetic
field, determine how the flux varies with changes in orientation.

2.Scalar Quantity:
Magnetic flux is a scalar quantity, meaning it has magnitude
but no specific direction. It is represented by a single
numerical value and is used to quantify the strength of the
magnetic field passing through a surface.

3.Dependent on Magnetic Field Strength:

• Magnetic flux is directly proportional to the strength of the
magnetic field (�B). The stronger the magnetic field, the
greater the magnetic flux through a given surface.

4.Conservation of Magnetic Flux:

• In a closed system, the total magnetic flux remains constant
unless there is a change in the magnetic field or the surface
area.

Understanding these characteristics is essential for

applying the concept of magnetic flux in electromagnetism
and Electromagnetic induction.
