[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Covers what electromagnetic induction is, how it occurs, the current produced from it, and how it is used.

Through labs, readings, videos, and discussions, students learn about the concepts of Electromagnetic Induction.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In order to understand electromagnetic induction, students are introduced to magnetic flux, to Faraday's Law of Induction, and to Lenz's Law. Includes a simulation...

In this interactive tutorial students will learn about a magnetic flux, induced current and how to apply Lenz's Law.

Learners investigate electromagnetic induction. Some topics explored in the activities are Faraday's law of induction, superconductivity, and non-conservative fields. The resource consists of video clips, online textbook chapters,...

This article surveys inductance and its different forms. It discusses numerous topics associated with inductance such as Faraday's Law, self and mutual inductance, inductors, and magnetic field lines.

Learners learn the relationship between the electric and magnetic fields. Specifically, they verify that a magnetic field is created in a current carrying coil of wire and a changing magnetic field can induce a current in another coil of...

In this interactive tutorial students will look at the energy stored in the magnetic field of an inductor. Self-inductance and mutual inductance will be distinguished and circuits with capacitors and inductors, or LC circuits will be...

Learners investigate inductance. Some topics explored in the activities are mutual inductance, self inductance, and circuits. The resource consists of video clips, online textbook chapters, lecture notes, exam questions, and practice...

Given schematic diagrams, illustrations or descriptions, students will identify the relationship of electric and magnetic fields in applications such as generators, motors, and transformers.

Here's a whole different look at Faraday. His religion, Sandemanian, greatly influenced both his life and his science. This article looks deeply at that aspect of his life.

A site dedicated to help students prepare for the AP Physics B test. This specific site reviews magnetism including the magnetic field, magnetic field, forces on a moving charge, forces on current-carrying wires, and electromagnetic...

This simulation demonstrates a rotating conducting disk in a magnetic field which produces a current or a self-exciting dynamo.

Students learn about static electricity using terms such as friction, induction, and conduction. They also explain and illustrate the difference between alternating and direct current, and understand the relationship among voltage,...

A really fine and complete biography, quite lengthy. Some emphasis placed on his time at Princeton. A great deal of detail can be found here. Link here to the Joseph Henry House.

Resource provides a biography of the scientist Andre Marie Ampere.

A solid biography of good length and history of Faraday's work. Complete, readable, thorough. Picture. Lots of links to other sources, including Joseph Henry's claim that *he* was first, and another about Faraday's kinetic flashlight!

Change the size and orientation of a conducting loop falling out of a region of uniform magnetic field. Then, the data is plotted on an interactive graph.

Looking for some more explanantion on a topic covered in physics class? This site contains videos that explore some physics concepts. Videos are broken down by topics. Some videos also give examples on how to solve problems.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Explains what electromotive force, or EMF, is, and how to calculate the EMF of a moving wire in a magnetic field.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Expalins how an electric generator works.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Discusses how an electric transformer works and step-up and step-down transformers.

Do you know how to induce an electromotive force? This reference page will help you understand why Faraday's law mean and how to use it.

Lenz's Law is defined and demonstrated with an interactive Java applet that shows the relationship between field lines of a magnetic and a conductor ring.
