Abstract

Time-varying magnetic flux densities induce time-varying electric fields. These induction phenomena are known as Faraday’s law of induction or simply Faraday’s law. Faraday’s law is good for any time-varying electromagnetic fields and is considered one of the most important laws in electromagnetic theory. We will discuss the electromagnetic induction phenomena using Faraday’s law. Script letters (\(\overline{\mathcal{E}}\), \(\overline{\mathcal{B}}\), \(\cdots \)) will be used for time-varying quantities.
