What is the Faraday law of electricity?

Learn what Faraday's law means and how to use it to determine the induced electro-motive force. read more

Faraday's law of induction is a basic law of electromagnetism predicting how a magnetic field will interact with an electric circuit to produce an electromotive force (EMF)—a phenomenon called electromagnetic induction. read more

This movement is what we recognize as an electric current. Magnetism. In order to understand Faraday’s Law of Induction, it is important to have a basic understanding of magnetic fields. Compared to the electric field, the magnetic field is more complex. read more

Lenz's law is a consequence of conservation of energy applied to electromagnetic induction. It was formulated by Heinrich Lenz in 1833. While Faraday's law tells us the magnitude of the EMF produced, Lenz's law tells us the direction that current will flow. read more
