1. An induction stove works on the principle of electromagnetic induction.
2. A metal coil is kept just beneath the cooling surface.
3. It carries alternating current (AC) so that AC produce an alternating magnetic field.
4. When you keep a metal pan with water on it, the varying magnetic field beneath it crosses the bottom surface of the pan, and EMF is induced in it.
5. Induced EMF produces induced current in the metal pan.
6. The pan has a finite resistance.
7. The flow of induced current produces heat in it.
8. That heat is conducted to the water. In this way, induction stove works and water will be heated.
