Electromagnetic induction is the creation of an electric current by altering the magnetic field girdled by an electrical circuit. The more common use of electromagnetic induction is the electric generator. Electromagnetic induction is the occurrence of using a magnet to make or induce a magnetic field in a conductor and simultaneously dislodging free electrons within it.

This generates a stream of current along with a rising and collapsing magnetic field around the conductor, which is the opposing polarity to that of the magnet from which it was induced. Electromagnetic induction uses the chemical properties of certain materials known as conductors.

In electromagnetic induction, a moving electrical charge generates a magnetic field. Electromagnetic induction is the methodology of using magnetic fields to produce voltage, and in a closed circuit, a current.
