    Zero lagrangian and induced gravitation

    Hello, Does anyone know what "induced gravity" is and where can one read (something not too technical) about it? I am trying to understand how a system with zero Lagrangian has something to do with gravity. Could someone explain perhaps? Thanks

    Why is the Induced Current Clockwise in this GRE Problem?

    Homework Statement http://grephysics.net/ans/9277/54 I am confused about this. The explanation for why the induced current is clockwise is because the induced current would resist the change in magnetic flux, therefore work to increase the magnetic field. But if the current induced in the...

    Calculating Induced EMF in Moving Wire

    In the classic problem of the induced EMF in a moving conductor (as in the picture above), the calculation for the induced EMF is as follows E=\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}=\frac{d(BA)}{dt}=\frac{Bd(A)}{dt}=\frac{Bd(Lx)}{dt}=\frac{BLdx}{dt}=BLv. The derivation assumes that the magnetic field B is...

    Simple doubt in induced charge
