Faraday hypothesized that if a current carrying wire caused a magnetic field then a magnetic field could be used to cause a current. Faraday to maximize the affect wanted to perform his experiment on an infinitely or very long wire he accomplished this by coiling a long wire around a wood cylinder and attaching it to a battery he then took a second wire and wrapped it around the first separated by a calico layer and then attached this coil to a galvanometer (a current measuring device). Contraption pictured above on the left. By sending current through the first wire in order to produce a magnetic field through the second Faraday thought he could create a current in the second wire. His assumption turned out to be only partially correct after the switch was thrown no current was detected in the second wire, but Faraday did observe a slight increase on the galvanometer the instant the switch was thrown and the same deflection in the opposite direction when the switch was turned off. From this experiment and another where he wrapped a coil f wire around a cylinder and moved a magnet through it to observe the current. Faraday was able to confirm that a change in the magnetic flux through a wire causes a current.
