Oersted reported electricity causing a magnetic field (compass to move) in 1820. This inspired Faraday to find the reverse, which he did around in 1830.

Process of producing an electric current in a loop of wire by either moving a magnet through the loop or moving the loop through the magnet?

This process is known as Electromagnetic Induction first observed by Michael Faraday.


Name of the first electric motor?

The first electric motor was the Faraday Motor, invented by Michael Faraday in 1821. This motor was a very rude motor, you have motion from electric energy, but no useful work. In 1831 he discovered electromagnetic induction and invented the first induction motor. See links below for more info.


Who was the first man to make electricity from magnets?

Michael Faraday was the first one who observed the production of electricity by moving magnets towards a coil of wire. This phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction.


What did Michael Faraday's invent?

Michael Faraday invented electromagnetic induction and the balloon


What best describes a process explained in a cycle?

It is shown with no first or last step, but with all steps as part of a connected process.


Who was the first person to show that magnetism creates electricity?

Michael Faraday was the first scientist who met the situations of getting electric current induced when the magnetic flux linked with the coil changes. This phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction.


What is the difference between electromagnetic induction and magnetic induction?

Electromagnetism is first discovered by Oersted. Electromagnetic induction first found by Michael Faraday. Electromagnetism is the phenomenon in which magnetism is produced when electric current flows in a straight wire. This is the conversion of electrical energy into magnetic energy. But electromagnetic induction is the phenomenon in which electric current is produced in a wire as it cuts the magnetic lines of force. Here in the presence of magnetic energy mechanical energy gets converted into electrical energy. The former is applied in fans, motors etc. The later is utilised in generators. In an electrical bell, electromagnetism plays an important role. In case of choke, electromagnetic induction serves in a nice way. Former has Biot-Savart law, Ampere's circuital law, Lorentz force law, Fleming's left hand rule, Right hand thumb rule. The latter has Faraday's laws, Lenz law, Fleming's right hand rule.


The British scientist who discovered that a changing magnetic field can produce and electric current?

From the Wikipedia article on Faraday's law of induction: "Electromagnetic induction was discovered independently by Michael Faraday in 1831 and Joseph Henry in 1832. Faraday was the first to publish the results of his experiments."Faraday was English and therefore British; Henry was American.


When were the first switchgear systems developed?

Power transformation was conceived in 1830 by Michael Faraday and Joseph Henry, who discovered the theory of electromagnetic induction. But the first commercially practical manual switching systems came in the late 1800s to service the telephone industry.


What is the link between Joseph Henry and the first transformer?

Transformer operation is based on a principle discovered in 1830 by Joseph Henry that electrical energy can be moved efficiently from one coil to another through electromagnetic induction.


One application of induced magnetism?

Electromagnetic induction occurs when a conductor moves through a magnetic field. It produces a voltage in the conductor, and if the conductor is part of a complete circuit it creates a current. It's applications include electric motors which are used in many household products (washing machines, tumble dryers), and some forms of transport (electric cars and trains). Generators use electromagnetic induction. Almost all power is generated by a moving turbine attached to a generator. Either the turbine is moved by steam from burning a fuel to heat water, or is being moved by water or air (wind turbines and hydroelectric power plants). Transformers, used for transmission through power lines and power supplies, use electromagnetic induction. They are used to up-scale or down-scale voltage in alternating current (AC). They are used to send electricity through power lines at high voltages (above 111,000 volts) to lower lost energy. They are then used to down-scale the high voltages from power lines to lower voltages (240 to 110 volts) for transmission to households. More transformers are used in power supplies to down-scale this to lower voltages used by household electronics. Electromagnetic induction often incurs a lot of energy transferred into heat. Which can be used for welding or any kind of heating, known as induction welding or induction heating. Induction was one of the first methods of detecting touch on a surface, and was used for early graphics tablets. Induction is used in Electromagnetic forming, which uses high intensity pulsed magnetic fields to shape objects. Pickups use electromagnetic induction to convert vibrations from a stringed instrument and converts it into electrical current which can be amplified into a speaker or recording device. Pickups are used in electric guitars. Electromagnetic induction is also used in electric hobs on cookers. It uses induction heating to heat a pan without the need for fire.
