Abstract:
The question of how the processes around the Faraday generator with its rotating magnet should be interpreted has been controversial since its discovery by Faraday. Does the magnetic field rotate together with the rotating magnet or does it remain stationary? Furthermore, does one only need Faraday’s flux law to interpret inductive processes, or are there processes in which this law fails and a satisfactory explanation can only be found with the help of the Lorentz force? This question seemed to have been re-solved recently in favor of Faraday’s flux law, which has been described as a universal law that applies without exception to every conceivable case. The measurements presented here raise doubts as to the validity of this interpretation.
