Ross · Answer 1

The procedure that Tonya utilizes should be that she moves a magnet into a coil of wire in a closed circuit. This will induce an EMF in the electric coil, which is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux. This is in accordance to Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. Moreover, the EMF produced will be in the direction opposing the movement of the magnet.
