    closed circuit is equal to the time rate of change of the magnetic flux through the circuit. Under Faraday’s Law‚ electric current is induced only if either the magnetic field is changing or the conductor is moving. Generators‚ for example‚ spin a coil of wire around a magnet to produce a steady current” [3]) did electricity become viable for use in technology. Since this electricity and the inventions that came with it has exploded as the worlds knowledge of electromagnitism has broadends and advances
