Any time a magnet's flux lines cut past a conductor (wire), a small pulse of electricity is generated. A generator is the same as a motor, except, it's rotor core is rotated by external means (wind, waterfall from a dam, steam and so on). As the rotor rotates, the magnetic field lines cut the conductors creating a pulse of electricity. The faster the rotor is rotated, the more power you will generate. You can experiment by using a small toy motor, connect the wires to a small low voltage light bulb, then rotate the rotor; the light bulb will light up.

∙ 13y agoWhen a conductor is moved through a magnetic field ("cuts the field lines"), a voltage, and a current, is induced in the conductor. Thus, mechanical energy is converted tinto electrical energy.

∙ 12y agoPass a magnet back and forth near a piece of wire, and electricity is produced in the wire. It has nowhere to go until a complete circuit is established, however.
Scale this up to a large winding of wire, and rotate the magnet inside the large winding and you will generate much more electricity . . . in fact, a device of this nature is called a 'generator'.

∙ 12y agoIf the wire is moved in the magnetic field - that is, near the magnet - a voltage will be generated. If the wire is connected to a closed circuit, a current will also flow. I want to know that with magnet rotating it attached to a wire of no eletricity the wire attached to a small bulb. By rotating magnet electricity is produced make bulb glow. But what i want to do/

Are magnets used to generate electricity?
Yes, magnets are an integral part of electrical energy generation.
How does moving magnet generate electricity?
magnet moves cause all magnets have an electric field around it]
What is the advantage of using windmill to generate electricity?
Less pollution
How do you get electricity using pressure?
Steam pressure can be used to run a steam turbine which generates electricity by converting the motion of magnets into voltage.
How could you increase a magnet's power without using electricity?
By rubbing two magnets together.
How do you generate electricity using magnets to power Christmas lights?
Magnets are used to generate electricity by rotating them around a metal wire. Alternatively, rotate magnets within a coiled metal wire.
Magnets spinning inside a hydroelectric dam generate what?
electricity
Are magnets used to generate electricity?
Yes, magnets are an integral part of electrical energy generation.
Which is the least sustainable practice?
Using coal to generate electricity. (APEX)
How do you generate electricity using a semiconductor p-n junction?
When light shines on a semiconductor p-n junction, the energy from photons can create electron-hole pairs, generating a potential difference across the junction. This potential difference can create an electric current when connected to an external circuit, allowing for the generation of electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
How you can generate electricity through muscles?
Muscles can generate pressure. Using transducers, pressure can be converted into electricity.

How do magnet s generate electricity?
Magnets are just rocks that come from the Earth. The Earth has grvaity, and when the magnets come up frm the ground they keep there gravity with them and thts how it wrks.
How do magnets generate electricity?
Magnets generate electricity by moving the magnet along a conductor, such as a wire. This is called induction. When magnetic lines of force sweep across a conductor, the magnetic field induces a voltage in the conductor. Voltage is "electrical pressure" and if a supporting circuit is set up connected to that conductor, current will flow.
What is the advantage of using windmill to generate electricity?
