Definition of electromagnetic induction

Inducing potential difference when conductor moves in magnetic field or field changes around conductor

Alternative name for electromagnetic induction

Generator effect

Relation of EM induction to motor effect

Opposite - generates electricity from motion

Requirement for EM induction to occur

Relative movement between conductor and magnetic field

Type of current from magnet moving back & forth in coil

Alternating current

Effect of induced current's magnetic field

Opposes the change that created it

How to reverse induced PD direction (movement)

Change movement of conductor relative to field

How to reverse induced PD direction (field)

Change direction of magnetic field

How to increase induced PD (speed)

Increase speed of relative motion

How to increase induced PD (coil)

Add more turns to the coil

How to increase induced PD (field strength)

Increase strength of magnetic field

What EM induction generates from motion
