Use the idea of magnetic flux linkage to explain why, when a magnet is moved into a coil, the e.m.f. induced depends on the strength of the magnet and the speed at which it is moved.

Important Questions on Electromagnetic Induction
In an experiment to investigate the factors that affect the magnitude of an induced e.m.f., a student moves a wire back and forth between two magnets, as shown in Figure ,State why the e.m. f. generated in this way is almost zero.
A wire is moved horizontally in a horizontal magnetic field.

In the type of generator found in a power station, a large electromagnet is made to rotate inside a fixed coil. An e.m.f. of 25 kV is induced; this is an alternating voltage of frequency
(a) State the factor that determines the frequency.
