$\Large\bold\star\underline{\underline\textbf{Eddy currents\:}}$

→ Eddy currents are the circulating currents which are produced in a conductor when the magnetic flux linked with the conductor changes.

» This current leads to the heating of the conductor and hence energy is lost.

$\Large\bold\star\underline{\underline\textbf{Experiment\:}}$

→ Note : Check the necessary picture also that is related to the ans (provided with answer)

→ Consider a solenoid connected to the source of alternating current. Let an aluminium disc be placed an coil. The alumihium disc remains placed on the column when the switch 'S" is off.

→ When the current is allowed to pass through the solenoid, the disc is thrown up. Current is induced in the disc which is eddy current. This induced current produces a magnetic field which opposes the growing magnetic field of solenoid. Thus the disc jumps up.

Answer 2

Explanation:

⋆Eddy currents

→ Eddy currents are the circulating currents which are produced in a conductor when the magnetic flux linked with the conductor changes.

» This current leads to the heating of the conductor and hence energy is lost.
