6.3 Electromagnetism

This section provides knowledge and understanding of magnetic fields, motion of charged particles in magnetic fields, Lenz’s law and Faraday’s law.

The application of Faraday’s law may be used to demonstrate how science has benefited society with important devices such as generators and transformers.

Transformers are used in the transmission of electrical energy using the national grid and are an integral part of many electrical devices in our homes.
