SUMMARY
The calculation of induced current in a loop is fundamentally based on Faraday's Law of Induction. When the current in a wire increases, it creates a changing magnetic field, which results in a changing magnetic flux through the loop. This change in flux induces an electromotive force (emf) in the loop. To find the induced current, one can apply Ohm's Law after calculating the induced emf, considering the resistivity of the material.
