  "term": "Induction",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "The process by which an electrical conductor or magnetic material becomes electrified or magnetized when exposed to a magnetic field, without direct physical contact. This phenomenon is governed by Faraday's law of induction, which describes how a changing magnetic field creates an electromotive force. Induction heating uses this principle to heat conductive materials.",
