Document Summary
An electromotive force is required for a current to flow in a circuit. For most devices that plug into a wall socket, the source of emf is not a battery but an electric generating station. Electromagnetic induction: if the magnetic flux through a circuit changes, an emf and a current are induced in the circuit.

Ma(cid:454)(cid:449)ell"s equations describe the behavior of electric and magnetic fields in general. If magnet is stationary and coil is moved, there is current during the motion: called an induced current, corresponding emf required to cause this current is an induced emf. When there is no current in the electromagnet, so that b = 0, the galvanometer shows no current.
