Which of the following best describes EMF?

• can be thought of as the difference between two electrical states in an electric field

• the potential difference generated by one or more cells or a changing magnetic field

• depends on the magnitude and resistance of the current

• force that causes an electric charge to flow

Which of the following can be done to increase the induced current in the conductor?

• using a larger magnet

• moving the magnet north pole first instead of the south pole

• moving conductor instead of the magnet

• using a coil instead of a single ring of wire

Which of the following describes Faraday's Law of Induction?

• the amount of chemical change being produced by a current at an electrode-electrolyte interface is proportional to the quantity of electricity used

• the induced current in a circuit is proportional to the rate of change over time of the magnetic flux through that circuit

• the magnitude of induced emf is equal to the rate of change of flux linkages with the coil

• The current induced in a circuit due to a change in a magnetic field is directed to oppose the change in flux and to exert a mechanical force that opposes the motion.
