Tossup

Observation of the formation of these phenomena is the general goal of nondestructive testing of ferrous compounds using MPI. In quasi-static conditions, the power dissipation due to these phenomena is inversely proportional to a constant that is 1 for a sheet and 2 for a wire. Waste sorting at recycling facilities use these phenomena to separate metallic materials. In transformers, power loss caused by these phenomena (10[1])can be minimized using laminated conductors and ferrite cores. (-5[1])Generation of these phenomena is used in braking systems often employed by roller coasters. These phenomena form due to a magnetic response as a consequence of Lenz’s law. (10[1])For 10 points, what phenomena consist of electric charges moving in closed loops during induction, named for their resemblance to whirlpools? ■END■ (10[1])
