      'My Favorites' is a special kind of lens which you can use to bookmark modules and collections directly in Connexions. 'My Favorites' can only be seen by you, and collections saved in 'My Favorites' can remember the last module you were on. You need a Connexions account to use 'My Favorites'.

      Definition of a lens

      Lenses

      A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

      What is in a lens?

      Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

      Who can create a lens?

      Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

Faraday's Law

Module by: Paul Padley

Summary: Faraday's Law is stated.

Faraday's Law

The magnetic flux is Φ M = B d A Φ M = B d A A device that can maintain a potential difference, despite the flow of current is a source of electromotive force. (EMF) The definition is mathematically ɛ = E d s ɛ = E d s Faraday's law states that ɛ = Φ M t ɛ = Φ M t This is simply an experimental fact.

Faraday's law could also be written E d s = t B d A E d s = t B d A

I will leave it as a problem to show that this can also be written × E = B t . × E = B t .
