induced emf

Noun B2 – Upper-Intermediate

A voltage generated in a conductor when it experiences a changing magnetic field.

"Moving the magnet quickly through the coil produced a larger induced emf than moving it slowly."

The faster the magnetic field changes, the greater the induced emf, a relationship described by Faraday's law.
