Which factors determine the direction of the induced e.m.f?

  • The direction of induced current and emf is given by lenz's law
  • Due to change in magnetic flux through a closed loop an induced current is established in the loop
  • Lenz's law states that
    'The induced current due to the induced emf always flow in such a direction as to oppose the change causing it'
  • Now we can combine faraday's law as given in equation (4) to find the direction of emf
  • Thus we can say that "The emf induced in a coil is equal to the negative rate of the change of the magnetic flux linked with it "
