When you initially connect a resistor to a battery, the current in the circuit is initially zero and then increases to its steady state value. If we made a graph of the magnitude of the current in the wires around the circuit, it would look something like one shown to right. In this case we would mathematically model the current as I=I0(1−e−t/τ), | When you initially connect a resistor to a battery, the current in the circuit is initially zero and then increases to its steady state value.

When you have a typical circuit (like a battery connected to a light bulb), the change in the magnetic field is small enough that the induced current in any nearby loop is probably negligible. However, as circuit components become smaller and smaller and are placed closer and closer together (with roughly the same amount of current), the induced currents (because of changing magnetic fields) can become an important consideration in the design of electronics. | When you have a typical circuit (like a battery connected to a light bulb), the change in the magnetic field is small enough that the induced current in any nearby loop is probably negligible.

As an example, let's consider a set of concentric coils, where the larger outside coil is initially connected to a battery so that it's current increases from 0 A to 1 A in 1 ns. What would be the induced potential in the smaller inner coil? | As an example, let's consider a set of concentric coils, where the larger outside coil is initially connected to a battery so that it's current increases from 0 A to 1 A in 1 ns.

This means we want to start by writing out what would be the magnetic field at the center of the larger loop (and therefore the magnetic field going through the small coil).

This equation tells us that as the magnetic field increases linearly in the large coil, a constant potential (and thus a constant current) is induced in the smaller coil. Remember that the negative sign on the induced potential says that the **induced current will generate a magnetic field that will be in the direction that opposes the change in magnetic flux**. In this case, we have an increasing positive magnetic flux, where we defined a positive flux to be out of the page following the magnetic field. Since the change in flux is increasing, the induced current will oppose this change and thus create a magnetic field that points into the page. So using the right hand rule for induction, we point our thumb into the page, and curl your fingers, which gives the direction of the induced current in the small coil - which would be clockwise. | This equation tells us that as the magnetic field increases linearly in the large coil, a constant potential (and thus a constant current) is induced in the smaller coil.
