12.1.1 Electromagnetic Induction
The production of an electromotive force across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field is known as Electromagnetic or magnetic induction. Are you getting ready for that physics test on electromagnetism? Give this quiz a try and polish up your knowledge on the topic as you prepare for the next class. All the best!

Pulling the North end of the magnet out.
- B.
Pushing the south end of the magnet into the coil
- C.
Changing the polarity of the ammeter connected to the coil
