Electromagnetic induction

Changing magnetic field creates current in conductor

What causes induced current

Changes in magnetic flux, not flux itself

Symbol for magnetic flux

ΦB\Phi_B

Formula for magnetic flux

ΦB=BA\Phi_B = B_\perp A

Unit of magnetic flux

Weber (Wb) or T m²

Faraday's law (N loops)

ε=NΔΦBΔt\varepsilon = -N\frac{\Delta\Phi_B}{\Delta t}

EMF meaning

Electromotive force (potential difference at terminals)

Lenz's law

Induced flux opposes the change that produced it

Negative sign in Faraday's law

Represents opposition to the change

Effect of faster motion on induced current

Produces larger current
