When a stationary conductor with free charges is subjected to a changing magnetic field, we get an electric potential difference across the conductor. This process is called electromagnetic induction. It's a superpower behind generating electricity and transforming currents. Oh, and big road vehicles use it as a brake system and energy saver!
Imagine you're on a huge bus and the driver hits the brakes. Instead of just wasting all that moving energy, electromagnetic induction is used to slow the vehicle down AND reclaim some of that kinetic energy. That's efficiency for you!
🎈 Fun Fact: Your favorite electronics, like phones and laptops? They owe a huge "Thank You" to electromagnetic induction for their power.
