Solution

Step 1: Definition of Induced Current

  1. Induced current is defined as the current developed in a coil of wire placed in changing magnetic field.
  2. This current flows because of the changing magnetic field.
  3. Electric fields generate which forces the charges in the wire to flow, resulting in the flow of electric current.
  4. The strength of the induced current depends on the number of turns in the coil and the rate of change of flux of the magnetic field.

Step 2: Strength of induced current

The strength of the induced current can be increased in the following way

  1. By increasing the rate of change of magnetic flux associated with the coil.
  2. By increasing the number of turns of the coil.
  3. The strength of the induced current can also be increased by altering the speed of relative motion between the coil and the magnetic field.
