Faraday's Law of Induction states that when there is a change in the magnetic field passing through a conductor, an electromotive force (EMF) is induced in the conductor, which then causes an electric current to flow.
Faraday's Law of Induction is a fundamental principle of electromagnetic induction, which is the process of generating an electromotive force by moving a conductor through a magnetic field or changing the magnetic field passing through a stationary conductor.
The formula is EMF = -N x ΔΦ/Δt, where N is the number of turns in the coil, ΔΦ is the change in magnetic flux, and Δt is the change in time.
Some common applications include generators, transformers, and electric motors. It is also used in devices such as induction cooktops and wireless chargers.
Lenz's Law is a consequence of Faraday's Law of Induction. It states that the direction of the induced current will always oppose the change that caused it. This is why when a magnet is moved through a coil, the induced current creates a magnetic field that opposes the motion of the magnet.
