  2. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    Electromagnetic or magnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force (emf) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field. Michael Faraday is generally credited with the discovery of induction in 1831, and James Clerk Maxwell mathematically described it as Faraday's law of induction .

  3. Hering's Paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hering's_Paradox

    The correct answer to this question is "Yes, it does", and it is one of the pitfalls concerning the application of Faraday's Law. For some people it is contraintuitive to assume that a Lorentz force is exerted to a charge although there is no relative motion between the magnet and the charge.

  4. IISER Aptitude Test - Wikipedia

    IAT consists of 60 questions: 15 questions each from Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics. Total time for answering the test is 3 hours. Questions are of multiple choice type with only one correct answer. Each correct answer is awarded 4 marks. Each incorrect answer leads to the deduction of 1 mark. Unanswered questions are awarded 0 mark.

  5. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    There are various mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field that are used in the study of electromagnetism, one of the four fundamental interactions of nature. In this article, several approaches are discussed, although the equations are in terms of electric and magnetic fields, potentials, and charges with currents, generally ...

  6. Oersted's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted's_law

    Ørsted investigated and found the physical law describing the magnetic field, now known as Ørsted's law. Ørsted's discovery was the first connection found between electricity and magnetism, and the first of two laws that link the two; the other is Faraday's law of induction.

  8. List of electrical phenomena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electrical_phenomena

    Inductance — The phenomenon whereby the property of a circuit by which energy is stored in the form of an electromagnetic field. Induction heating — Heat produced in a conductor when eddy currents pass through it. Joule heating — Heat produced in a conductor when charges move through it, such as in resistors and wires.

  9. History of Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Maxwell's_equations

    The third equation [C] relates the electromagnetic field to electromagnetic force. The rest of the equations [D] to [L] relates the electromagnetic field to material data: the current and charge densities as well as the material medium. Here the twelve Maxwell's equations have been given, respecting the original notations used by Maxwell.
