Electromagnetic induction question

AI Thread Summary
Electromagnetic induction occurs when a wire or coil experiences a change in magnetic field, generating a voltage and potentially a current if connected to a load. When current flows through a coil, it indeed produces its own magnetic field, regardless of external magnetic influences. If a coil is moved within a magnetic field, the induced current will also create a magnetic field around the coil. This relationship between current flow and magnetic field generation is a fundamental principle of electromagnetism. Understanding this interaction is crucial for applications in electrical engineering and physics.

Hello

I am new to this forum and wanted to ask a question on em induction.

I know if a current passes through a wire a magnetic field around the wire is produced and can be amplified by having a coil of wire. If that is then placed in a magnetic field (like between a north and south pole magnetic) motion will be produced.

With induction if a wire/coil experiences a change in magnetic field by movement of either magnet or wire, then a voltage/P.D will be produced and maybe current if it is connected to a load.

What I want to know is if current does flow through the coil during em induction when a voltage is being produced by the coil/wire will there be a magnetic field produced around the coil/wire itself as current is flowing through it?

Thank you for reading and any replies.

Can you add some punctuation marks? It is hard to read your post.

If a current flows through a coil, it produces a magnetic field, even if there are other external magnetic fields or anything else.
 
Sorry my question is confusing.

If current flows through a coil, (like from a battery) then is produces a magnetic field.
So if I move a coil in a magnetic field, to create a current flow through the coil will it also turn into a magnetic?
 
The induced current will produce a magnetic field, right.
 
Thank you for the answer mfb.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'
So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
