To study the phenomenon of
electromagnetic induction
INTRODUCTION
Electro magnet:
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which
the magnetic field is produced by electric
current. The magnetic field disappears when
the current is turned off.
Induction :
This process of generating current in a
conductor by placing the conductor in a
changing magnetic field is called induction.
Electromagnetic induction :
Electromagnetic induction is the production
of a potential difference (voltage) across a
conductor when it is exposed to varying
magnetic field. Electromagnetic induction is
when an electromagnetic field causes
molecules in another object to flow. Induction
can produce electricity (coils), heat (in ferrous
metals), or waves (in a ratio transmitter).
Finally, it is reffering to the phenomenon
where an emf is induced when the magnetic
flux linking a conductor change.
Magnetic flux is defined as the product of the
magnetic flux density and the area normal to
the field through which the field is passing. It
is a scaler quantity and its S.I. unit is the
weber (Wb).

PRINCIPLE
Electromagnetic induction (or sometimes just
induction) is a process where a conductor
placed in a changing magnetic field (or a
conductor moving through a stationary
magnetic field) causes the production of a
voltage across the conductor. This process of
electromagnetic induction, in turn, causes an
electrical current - it is said to induce the
current.
THEORY
Invension:
Michael Faraday is generally credited with the
discovery of induction in 1831 though it may
have been anticipated by the work of
Francesco Zantedeschi in 1829. Around 1830
to 1832, joseph henry made a similar
discovery, but did not publish his findings
until later.
Induced e.m.f :
If magnetic flux through a coil is altered then
an emf will be generated in the coil. This effect
was first observed and explained by ampere
and faraday between 1825 and 1831. Faraday
discovered that an emf could be generated
either by,
a) Moving the coil or the source of flux
relative to each other or
b) By changing the magnitude of the
source of magnetic flux.
