Faraday's Law

The magnitude induced EMF through a loop of conducting material is equal to the magnitude of the time derivative rate of change of the magnetic flux through that loop.

\left|\frac{d\Phi_{B}}{dt}\right| = \left|e.m.f\right|

Lenz's Law

The polarity of the induced EMF is such that oppose the changes/current that causes it.

e.m.f = -N\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}

Magnetic Field Strength

Magnetic Field Strength is defined as the force on one metre of wire carrying a current of one amp at right angles to the magnetic field. Magnetic Field Strength is also called flux density and is measured in teslas, T.
