Electromagnetic phenomena in superconductors are reviewed. In superconductor in a transverse magnetic field, the electromagnetic phenomena are described by the critical state model assuming a balance between the Lorentz force and pinning force. In this case the Josephson equation for the induced electric field, E = B × v, holds for the motion of flux lines with velocity v. On the other hand, the electromagnetic phenomena in a longitudinal magnetic field of current-carrying superconductor are quite different from those in the transverse magnetic field. For example, the Josephson relation does not hold and even a negative potential drop is locally observed in the resistive state above the critical current. In this review it is shown that these peculiar phenomena are explainable using the flux motion driven by a force-free torque, a restoring torque against rotationally shearing deformation of flux lines due to the force-free current parallel to flux lines.
