In induction heating, a metal object is heated without direct contact with a heat source. Which principle is this based on?
  • Thermal conduction through air
  • Electromagnetic induction causing eddy currents in the metal
  • Convection currents in the surrounding medium
  • Direct radiation from a magnetic field

  • Electric current produces heat only
  • Electric current produces a magnetic field around the wire
  • The compass is broken
  • The wire is made of a magnetic material
In induction heating, why does a non-magnetic material like aluminum still get heated even though it is not strongly attracted to magnets?
  • Aluminum absorbs heat from the surrounding air
  • Eddy currents are induced in aluminum due to the changing magnetic field, generating heat through resistance
  • Aluminum has a very low melting point, so it heats up easily
  • Aluminum reflects the magnetic field, which generates heat
