The motion of copper plates is damped when it is allowed to oscillate between the two poles of a magnet. If slots are cut in the plate, how will the damping be affected? |
| Answer» The damping is due to eddy currents induced in the copper plate. If slots are cut in the plate, the eddy current loops become much shorter-as a result, the net value of the eddy current decreases. Then the damping becomes less. | |
