Question

what is faradys law

Answer 1

Hello nicowald - Welcome to OpenStudy.

Faraday's law is itself a topic to understand - It will not be possible for me to explain better than this : http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/farlaw.html

Though, if you don't get anything in it, let me know! We will try to help you out.

Best of Luck for your journey on OpenStudy.

Answer 2

DO YOU MEAN FARADAY'S LAW OF INDUCTION?
Faraday's law of induction is a basic law of electromagnetism predicting how a magnetic field will interact with an electric circuit to produce an electromotive force (EMF)—a phenomenon called electromagnetic induction. It is the fundamental operating principle of transformers, inductors, and many types of electrical motors, generators and solenoids FROM WIKIPEDIA

Answer 3

Faraday's Law basically says that a \(changing\) magnetic field will induce an electric field in a coil in such a direction as to appose the change:


This is the basis for how electric motors work and is debateably, the single most important law upon which our entire power industry and hence, our economy, is based.
