[[Category:Done 2015-01-15 ]] 
<onlyinclude>'''Magnetic flux''' is the amount of [[magnetic field]] perpendicular to a surface, passing through that surface. Changing magnetic flux creates an [[electromotive force]], which will often make electric [[current]] flow through a [[wire]].</onlyinclude> 

A full treatment of this subject is necessary to understand the internal workings of [[electric generator]]s, but the physics and mathematics behind magnetic flux are beyond the scope of this [[Main_Page|encyclopedia]] and take years of study to understand properly. An excellent place to start is [http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/magnetic/fluxmg.html hyperphysics], but D. J. Griffiths' ''Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism'' is an excellent text on the subject.
