SUMMARY
Faraday's Law describes the relationship between magnetic flux and induced electromotive force (emf) in a closed loop. The term E represents the induced electromotive force, while the notation -d/dt signifies the negative time derivative of the magnetic flux (φ) through the loop. Understanding these components is crucial for grasping the principles of electromagnetic induction. The equation illustrates that a change in magnetic flux over time results in an induced emf, which is fundamental in electrical engineering and physics.
