In the previous set of lessons, we concentrated on the behaviour of moving charges in magnetic fields.
However there is a flip-side.
If an electrical charge experience is a changing magnetic field, or more correctly flux, it will begin to 'move'. This concept is called electromagnetic induction.
In the series of lessons we will discuss the key terms you need to understand, Faraday's law and Lenz law, which underpin our understanding of induction, and include some applications of induction, including transformers and electromagnetic braking.

Magnetic Flux
An important concept in electromagnetic induction is the idea of flux. Flux has numerous meanings within physics. In this concept in this context we will be examining it in terms of magnetic field lines.
