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.

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.
How does moving magnet generate electricity?
magnet moves cause all magnets have an electric field around it]
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.
What is the use magnets?
One major use of magnets is to determine the direction. The other major use is to generate electricity. All generators make use of of permanent or electromagnets to convert Mechanical energy into Electrical energy.

What is a magneto ignition system?
On things like cars you usually have a belt driven alternator to provide electricity to the ignition and all electric functions. But if you have something simpler, like a chain saw or a small outboard engine, then you can have magnets in/on the flywheel that pass by coils to generate electricity for the spark plugs. And that's a magneto ignition system.
What type of magnets are easy to magnetize but Loose made quickly?
electronic magnets as they work with electricity produced
What do magnets make?
Electricity
How do magnets help create electricity?
If a conductor - such as a wire - moves through a magnetic field, a voltage is produced in the conductor. This may cause a current (if the wire is connected to an external circuit). This effect is used in generators to generate electricity.
How do you make electricity out of steam?
There is a type of electrical generating machine called a steam turbine. Steam is used to make the turbine spin. The turbine contains magnets, and the moving magnetic fields, as they intersect wires, generate electricity.
