Part 6: Derivations & Explanations
==========================================
1. **Faraday’s Laws of Electromagnetic Induction:**
- **First Law**: A change in the magnetic flux linked with a closed loop induces
an electromotive force (EMF) in the loop. If the circuit is closed, this EMF causes
a current to flow.
- **Second Law**: The magnitude of the induced EMF is directly proportional to
the rate of change of magnetic flux. Mathematically,
\[ \mathcal{E} = -
rac{d\Phi}{dt} \]
where \( \mathcal{E} \) is the induced EMF, and \( \Phi \) is the magnetic
flux.
2. **Coulomb’s Law from Gauss’s Law:**
- Consider a point charge \( Q \) placed at the center of a sphere of radius \
( r \).
- By symmetry, the electric field is radial and has the same magnitude at every
point on the sphere.
- The total flux through the sphere is:
\[ E \cdot 4\pi r^2 =
rac{Q}{#arepsilon_0} \]
- Solving for \( E \):
\[ E =
rac{Q}{4\pi #arepsilon_0 r^2} \]
- This is **Coulomb’s Law**, stating that the electric field due to a point
charge varies as the inverse square of the distance.
