Abstract :
The enlightenment of the article is to introduce the basic concepts and terminology for the understanding of the electromagnetic induction i.e. the relation of electricity and magnetism. A special attention has been given to the concept of displacement current introduced by James Clerk Maxwell to explain the equation of continuity of charges. The changing electric field is the source of the magnetic field and vice versa. During the discussion of the topic, we make an attempt to understand some terminology, the typical value of principles & all boxed equations

Key-Words / Index Term :
displacement current, electromagnetic induction, electrodynamics, magnetic monopole
