#electromagnetic induction
Michael Faraday achieved electromagnetic induction here at the Ri for the first time #OnThisDay in 1831
His work revolutionised our understanding of electricity and led to the development of electric generators, motors, inductors & transformers ⚡️
Electromagnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force (voltage) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field.
You can find his electromagnetic induction ring and notes within our Museum and archival collection!
If beautifully scrawling handwriting ain’t your thing, read the transcription of Faraday’s notes here.
