Electromagnetic induction is the process by which a changing magnetic field generates an electromotive force (EMF) in a conductor, leading to an electric current. This phenomenon occurs when a conductor, such as a coil of wire, is exposed to a varying magnetic field, either through relative motion between the conductor and the magnet or by varying the strength of the magnetic field itself. The fundamental principle behind this process, known as Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction, states that the induced EMF in a closed loop is proportional to the rate at which the magnetic flux changes through the loop. Several factors influence electromagnetic induction, including the strength and speed of the magnetic field change, the number of turns in the coil, and the material properties of the conductor. A common real-life example of electromagnetic induction is found in electrical generators, where mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy, as in hydroelectric power plants, where moving water spins a turbine connected to a generator, inducing electricity through a rotating magnetic field.
