Document Summary

Induces voltage by changing the magnetic field strength in a coil of wire. Induced voltage can be increased by increasing the number of loops of wire in a coil increasing the speed of the magnet entering and leaving the coil. Voltage is induced in the wire loop whether the magnetic field moves past the wire or the wire moves through the magnetic field. When a magnet is plunged into a coil with twice as many loops as another, twice as much voltage is induced. If the magnet is plunged into a coil with 3 times as many loops, 3 times as much voltage is induced. Faraday"s law: induced voltage in a coil is proportional to the number of loops, multiplied by the rate at which the magnetic field changes within those loops. Amount of current produced by electromagnetic induction is dependent on: resistance of the coil.
