    Question

    The process of producing an induced current by a changing magnetic field is called:

    A.

    electromagnetism

    B.

    electromagnetic induction

    C.

    electromagnetic radiation

    D.

    electric conduction

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (b) electromagnetic induction

    Key points:

    • Electromagnetic induction is a current produced because of voltage production (electromotive force) due to a changing magnetic field.
    • This process happens when a conductor is placed in a moving magnetic field (when using an AC power source) or when a conductor is constantly moving in a stationary magnetic field.
    • The factors which influence voltage production are the number of cells and varying magnetic fields.

    Information booster:

    • Electromagnetic Induction was discovered by Michael Faraday in 1831.
    • Some of the applications of electromagnetic induction are as follows: AC generators, Transformers, etc.
