It will also beseen that if the coil terminals are open or disconnected verylittle energy will be required to move the magnet, since therewill now be no attractions and repulsions to overcome. The extra energy required when the coil is closed is ex-pended in producing… … Fig 265.—The Polarity of the Induced Cur-rent Tends to Stop the MotionProducing It.—Lenzs Law.
