Question

Defination of Eddy current

Answer 1

Eddy currents are loops of electrical current induced within conductors by a changing magnetic field in the conductor due to Faraday's law of induction. Eddy currents flow in closed loops within conductors, in planes perpendicular to the magnetic field.

Answer 2

Eddy currents are the currents produced in the form of circular loops on the surface of a metallic plate when moving in an external magnetic field.
