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 a varying magnetic
field. Electromagnetic induction is when an electromagnetic field
causes molecules in another object to flow. Induction can produce
electricity (in coils), heat (in ferrous metals), or waves (in a radio
transmitter).
Finally, it is referring to the phenomenon where an emf is induced
when the magnetic flux linking a conductor change.
Magnetic Fisludxefined as the product of the magnetic flux density

and the area normal to the field through which the field is
passing. It is a scalar 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 e.m.f. 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 e.m.f. 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.
Note that the e.m.f. is only produced while the flux is changing.
For example, consider two coils as shown in Figure 1.

Working and Construction
Current is produced in a conductor when it is moved through a

magnetic field because the magnetic lines of force are applying a
force on the free electrons in the conductor and causing them to move.
This process of generating current in a conductor by placing the
conductor in a changing magnetic field is called induction. This is
called induction because there is no physical connection between the
conductor and the magnet. The current is said to be induced in the
conductor by the magnetic field. One requirement for this
electromagnetic induction to take place is that the conductor, which is
often a piece of wire, must be perpendicular to the magnetic lines of
force in order to produce the maximum force on the free electrons.
The direction that the induced current flows is determined by the
direction of the lines of force and by the direction the wire is moving
in the field. In the animation above the ammeter (the instrument used
to measure current) indicates when there is current in the conductor.

Lenz's Law:
When an emf is generated by a change in magnetic flux
according to Faraday's Law, the polarity of the induced emf is
such that it produces a current whose magnetic field opposes
the change which produces it. The induced magnetic field inside
any loop of wire always acts to
keep the magnetic flux in the loop constant. In the examples
below, if the B field is increasing, the induced field acts in
opposition to it. If it is decreasing, the induced field acts in the
direction of the applied
field to try to keep it constant.
Lenz’s Law
Applications of electromagnetic Induction
Electrical Generator:
The EMF generated by Faraday's law of induction due to relative
movement of a circuit and a magnetic field is the phenomenon
underlying electrical generators. When a permanent magnet is moved
relative to a conductor, or vice versa, an electromotive force is
created. If the wire is connected through an electrical load, current
11 | Page
will flow, and thus electrical energy is generated,
converting the mechanical energy of motion to electrical
energy
ELECTRIC GENERATOR
E lectrical transformer:
The EMF predicted by Faraday's law is also responsible for

electrical transformers. When the electric current in a loop of
wire changes, the changing current creates a changing magnetic
field. A second wire in reach of this magnetic field will
experience this change in magnetic
field as a change in its coupled magnetic flux, dΦB/dt.
Therefore, an
electromotive force is set up in the second loop called the
induced
EMF or transformer EMF. If the two ends of this loop are
connected
through an electrical load, current will flow.

OBSERVATION
▪
Magnet is moved at certain rate and certain voltage is
produced.
▪
Magnet is moved at faster rate and creating a greater
induced voltage.
▪
Magnet is moved at same speed through coil that has
greater number of turn and greater voltage is induced.

CONCLUSION
Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, first observed and

published by Michael Faraday in the mid-nineteenth century,
describes a very important electro-magnetic concept. Although its
mathematical representations are cryptic, the essence of Faraday’s is
not hard to grasp: it relates an induced electric potential or voltage to
a dynamic magnetic field. This concept has many far-reaching
ramifications that touch our lives in many ways: from the shining of
the sun, to the convenience of mobile communications, to electricity
to power our homes. We can all appreciate the profound impact
Faraday’s Law has on us.
