Expert's answer

what is the equation for magnetic induction?

The most widespread version of Faraday's law states:

The induced electromotive force in any closed circuit is equal to the negative of the time rate of change of the magnetic flux through the circuit:


E=dΦBdt\mathcal{E} = - \frac {d \Phi_{B}}{d t}


where E\mathcal{E} is electromotive force acting along an arbitrarily chosen path,


ΦB=SBdS,\Phi_{B} = \iint_{S} \vec{B} \cdot d \vec{S},


-- magnetic flux through the surface stretched on this path.

For example, for a tightly wound coil of wire, composed of NN identical loops, each with the same ΦB\Phi_B, Faraday's law of induction states that


E=NdΦBdt=dΨdt\mathcal{E} = - N \frac {d \Phi_{B}}{d t} = - \frac {d \Psi}{d t}


where NN is the number of turns of wire, ΦB\Phi_B is the magnetic flux in webers through a single loop and Ψ\Psi is the flux linkage of a coil.
