The birth of the electric machines: a commentary on Faraday (1832
... The experiments described in the paper all showed, with increasing sophistication, that a current could be induced all the time there was relative motion between the conductor and the magnetic field. With hindsight and the appropriate language we use today, we say that a current is induced in a cond ...

These electrons are charged and spin acting like little electromagnets and their magnetism never wears off. It is the lining up of many, many electron spins that creates permanent ...

... An induced current has a direction such that the magnetic field due to the current opposes the change in the magnetic flux that induces the current. The induced emf has the same direction as the induced current. Know that a changing magnetic field produces an electric field in accordance with Farada ...

Faraday paradox
This article describes the Faraday paradox in electromagnetism. There are many Faraday paradoxs in electrochemistry: see Faraday paradox (electrochemistry).The Faraday paradox (or Faraday's paradox) is any experiment in which Michael Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction appears to predict an incorrect result. The paradoxes fall into two classes:1. Faraday's law predicts that there will be zero EMF but there is a non-zero EMF.2. Faraday's law predicts that there will be a non-zero EMF but there is a zero EMF.Faraday deduced this law in 1831, after inventing the first electromagnetic generator or dynamo, but was never satisfied with his own explanation of the paradox.
