This law states that the electromotive force (EMF, [latex]\mathcal{E}[/latex]) induced in any closed circuit is equal to the negative of the time rate of change of the magnetic flux ([latex]\Phi_B[/latex]) through the circuit. The mathematical expression is [latex]\mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}[/latex]. This principle is the basis for electric generators, transformers, and inductors, describing the macroscopic effect of induction.
