When any material moves through a magnetic field (for example, close to a magnet), a voltage is induced in the material. If the material is a good conductor, and is properly connected, a current can be derived from this. Moving the conductor through the magnetic field requires work (due to the magnetic field of the moving conductor itself); thus, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy, and energy conservation is not violated.

How do you explain to a kid what electricity has to do with magnetism?

You can explain the basic relationships:* An electrical current will be accompanied by a magnetic field. That is, it will act as a magnet. * If a conductor moves through a magnetic field (e.g., near a magnet), a current will flow through the conductor (if there is a closed circuit).


Does a magnet just the word magnet conduct electricity?

no it does not.


Can a magnet be used to produce electricity?

A spinning magnet inside a coil of copper wire will produce electricity.


What does the electro magnet prove about electricity?

Can connecting a specific amount of magnet to one of your electric wires reduce the electricity usage?

No. Your magnet will fight the electricity.


What does an electromagnet do and how does it differ from a regular magnet?

An electromagnet is a type of magnet that uses electricity to create a magnetic field. It can be turned on and off by controlling the flow of electricity. In contrast, a regular magnet is always magnetic and does not require electricity to function.


How are eltromagnets used in generators?

Any time a magnet passes through a coil of copper wire (the electro magnet) it produces electricity. In all reallity, you don't really have an electro magnet in a generator. Since the Coil or(field) is making the electricity instead of using electricity, the electro magnet isn't really a magnet; but more like an "anti-magnet" :)


How does a magnet produce electricity?

It is weird


What can produce electricity to make a magnet?

Electricity can be produced by various methods such as generators, batteries, and solar panels, which can then be used to power a magnet.
