6. What is fringing?
In the air gap the magnetic flux fringes out into neighboring air paths due to the reluctance of
air gap which causes a non uniform flux density in the air gap of a machine. This effect is called
fringing effect.
9. What is magnetostriction?
When ferromagnetic materials are subjected to magnetizing mmf, these may undergo small
changes in dimension; this phenomenon is known as magnetostriction.
21. A coil is wound on an iron core to form a solenoid. A certain current is passed through the
coil which is producing a flux of 40 µWb. The length of magnetic circuit is 75cm while its cross
sectional area is 3 cm2. Calculate the energy stored in the circuit. Assume relative permeability
of iron as 1500.
22. A coil carries 200 turns gives raise a flux of 500 µWb when carrying a certain current. If this
current is reversed in 1/10 th of a second. Find the average e.m.f. induced in the coil.
23. A conductor of 2 m length moves with a uniform velocity of 1.27 m/sec under a magnetic
field having a flux density of 1.2 Wb/m2 (tesla). Calculate the magnitude of induced e.m.f. if
conductor moves.
