Discuss the contribution of different scientists to electromagnetism. Define electromagnetic induction.
(N/A) For a long time,electricity and magnetism were considered separate and unrelated phenomena. In the early $19^{th}$ century,experiments by Oersted,Ampere,and others established that electricity and magnetism are interrelated,showing that moving electric charges produce magnetic fields.
Michael Faraday in England and Joseph Henry in the $USA$,around $1830$,demonstrated that electric currents are induced in closed coils when subjected to changing magnetic fields.
Electromagnetic induction is the phenomenon in which an electric current is generated in a conductor by a varying magnetic field.

Some magnetic flux is changed through a coil of resistance $10 \, \Omega$. As a result,an induced current is developed in it,which varies with time as shown in the figure (assuming a triangular pulse with base $0.1 \, s$ and height $4 \, A$). The magnitude of the change in flux through the coil in Webers is:

View SolutionThe magnetic flux through a coil is $4 \times 10^{-4} \ Wb$ at time $t=0$. It reduces to $30 \%$ of its original value in time $t$ seconds. If the e.m.f. induced in the coil is $0.56 \ mV$,then the value of $t$ is: (in $s$)
In a closed circuit, there is only a coil of inductance $L$ and resistance $100 \Omega$. The coil is situated in a uniform magnetic field. Suddenly, the magnetic flux linked with the circuit changes by $5 \text{ Wb}$. What amount of charge will flow in the circuit as a result?
