    The document discusses factors that affect the self-inductance of a coil. It describes an experiment to study how self-inductance depends on the number of turns in the coil, the core material, and the frequency of an alternating current source. The experiment measures the current and brightness of a bulb in a circuit with a coil at different frequencies with and without an iron core inside the coil. The results show that the current and brightness decrease when an iron core is inserted and increase at lower frequencies.

    Introduction

    There are four basic factors of

    inductor construction determining

    the amount of inductance created.

    These factors all indicate

    inductance by affecting how much

    magnetic field flux will develop for

    a given amount of magnetic field

    force (current through the

    inductor’s wire coil.


    The factors are:-

    • NUMBER OF WIRE WRAPS, OR

    “TURNS” IN THE COIL.

    • COIL AREA.
    • COIL LENGTH.
    • CORE MATERIAL.
    Aim

    To study the factor on which the


    Self Inductance of a coil depends
    by observing the effect of this coil,
    when put in series with a resistor
    (bulb) in a circuit fed up by an A.C.
    source of adjustable frequency.

    Apparatus Required
    A coil of large turns, A.C. source of
    adjustable frequency, an electric
    bulb, (6 V) A.C. ammeter of
    suitable range, rheostat, a soft iron
    rod, one way key, connecting wires
    etc.

    Theory

    Self Inductance is the property of a


    coil which opposes the change in
    current through it. The Self
    Inductance of a coil (long
    solenoid) is
    2
    L =μ0μr N A
    Where μr= Relative magnetic
    permeability of magnetic material,
    μ
    μr = μ μ°
    ▪ N= Total number of turns in
    solenoid
    ▪ A= Area of cross section of
    solenoid
    ▪ l= Length of solenoid

    Hence, the Self Inductance


    depends upon
    • No. of turns (N), L α N2
    • Geometry of coil, L=A , L α
    1/l
    • Nature of core material, L= μ

    When an inductor is connected in


    series with a resistor (bulb) with a
    variable source of frequency, then
    current flowing in the bulb is

    E
    I rms = rms
    Z
    2 2 2 ½
    Where Z= (R + ω L ) =Impedance
    of the A.C. Circuit
    R= Resistance of bulb
    L= Self Inductance of coil
    ω = 2πf = Angular frequency
    of A.C. source.

    The brightness of bulb i.e. Heat


    generated in bulb is
    2
    H= I rmsZt
    The brightness of bulb i.e. Heat
    generated in bulb is
    H= I2rmsZt
    Or,
    2
    P=H/t= I rmsZ

    P= I (R + ω L )

    Circuit Diagram
    Procedure
    ▪ Make all connections as shown
    in circuit diagram.
    ▪ Switch on the A.C. supply and
    adjust the constant current in
    the circuit by using the variable
    resistor (R1) (let frequency of
    source is 60 Hz and voltage is
    6V).
    ▪ Record the current in A.C.
    ammeter and see the brightness
    of bulb.
    ▪ Now, put the soft iron rod inside
    the inductor core and record the
    current in A.C. ammeter and
    again check the brightness of
    bulb. The current and brightness
    both decreases.
    ▪ Now, switch off the supply and
    decrease the frequency of A.C.
    source (say 50 Hz).
    ▪ Again switch on the supply and
    adjust the current in circuit at
    same constant voltage 6V by
    using the rheostat. Note the
    current in ammeter and
    brightness of bulb. The current
    and brightness both will
    increases.
    ▪ Again insert the iron in the core
    of coil and note the current and
    brightness. The current and
    brightness both decreases.
    ▪ Repeat the steps 5, 6 and 7 for
    different frequency of A.C.
    source (say 40 Hz,30 Hz and 20
    Hz).
    Fig 1.1: Experimental setup of experiment.

    Observations
    ▪ Least Count Error= 0 A.
    ▪ Zero error of ammeter =0 A.
    ▪ Range of ammeter = 0-5 A.

    5. 20 4.1 4
    Result
    • The current in the circuit
    decrease on inserting the iron
    rod in the core of coil at
    constant frequency of applied
    voltage and brightness of bulb
    decreases and vice-versa.
    • The current in the circuit
    increases on decreasing the
    frequency of applied voltage
    and vice-versa. Therefore, the
    brightness of bulb increases.

    Precautions
    • The coil should have large
    number of turns.
    • Current should be passed for a
    small time to avoid the heating effect.
    • There should not be parallax in
    taking the reading of ammeter.

    Sources of Error

    • The resistance of circuit may


    increases slightly due to heating
    effect of current.
    • There may be eddy current in
    soft iron coil.
