What is the process of generating current induced by a change in magnetic field called?

AElectromagnetism

BElectromagnetic induction

CElectrical conduction

DElectromagnetic radiation

Answer:

B. Electromagnetic induction

Read Explanation:

  • The process of generating current due to a changing magnetic field is called electro magnetic induction.

  • Electromagnetic Induction is a current produced because of voltage production (electromotive force) due to a changing magnetic field.

  • This either happens when a conductor is placed in a moving magnetic field (when using an AC power source) or when a conductor is constantly moving in a stationary magnetic field.
