## Faraday's Law

[edit | edit source]

The magnitude induced EMF through a loop of conducting material is equal to the magnitude of the time derivative rate of change of the magnetic flux through that loop.

| d Φ B d t | = | e . m . f | {\displaystyle \left|{\frac {d\Phi _{B}}{dt}}\right|=\left|e.m.f\right|}

## Lenz's Law

[edit | edit source]

The polarity of the induced EMF is such that oppose the changes/current that causes it.

e . m . f = − N d Φ B d t {\displaystyle e.m.f=-N{\frac {d\Phi _{B}}{dt}}}

## Magnetic Field Strength

[edit | edit source]

Magnetic Field Strength is defined as the force on one metre of wire carrying a current of one amp at right angles to the magnetic field. Magnetic Field Strength is also called flux density and is measured in teslas, T.
