Magnetic induction is the process by which a magnetic field can generate an electric current in a conductor. This phenomenon was first discovered by Michael Faraday in the 19th century.
Magnetic induction can induce a current in a conductor by varying the magnetic field around it. This changing magnetic field creates an electric field that causes the electrons in the conductor to move, thus producing a current.
Magnetic induction is commonly used in the operation of electric generators, transformers, and motors. It is also used in wireless charging technology and electromagnetic induction cooktops.
The stronger the magnetic field, the greater the induced current will be. This is because a stronger magnetic field will create a larger electric field, resulting in a higher rate of electron movement and therefore a larger current.
While magnetic induction is a safe and widely used phenomenon, high currents induced by strong magnetic fields can pose a risk of electric shock. It is important to handle and use equipment or devices that utilize magnetic induction with caution and proper safety measures in place.
