What is electromagnetic induction?
Q: What is electromagnetic induction?
A: Electromagnetic induction is the production of a voltage or current in a conductor by a changing magnetic flux.
Q: How does electromagnetic induction occur?
A: Electromagnetic induction occurs when a magnet is moved in a solenoid, thus changing the magnetic flux.
Q: Will there be a produced voltage across an electrical conductor if a magnet is stationary in respect to it?
A: No, there will be no produced voltage (electrostatic potential difference) across an electrical conductor if the magnet is stationary.
Q: Who stated about the production of a voltage and the flow of alternating current in relation to electromagnetic induction?
A: Michael Faraday stated about the production of a voltage and the flow of alternating current in relation to electromagnetic induction in 1831.
Q: Does continuous movement of a magnetic field in the opposite direction cause the production of a voltage?
A: Yes, continuous movement of a magnetic field in the opposite direction causes the production of a voltage, leading to the flow of alternating current.
Q: When an electric current is produced in a conductor by a changing magnetic field, what phenomenon is it known as?
A: The phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction when an electric current is produced in a conductor by a changing magnetic field.
Q: Is electromagnetic induction possible without a magnetic field?
A: No, electromagnetic induction is not possible without a magnetic field.
