Can electricity be generated by turning a large magnet inside a wire coil?

yes


Can two electromagnets produce electricity?

Two magnets with different polarities with a coil spinning in between produces electricity. It can be configured as a DC machine or an AC machine. Likewise two electromagnets with different polarities with a coil spinning in between them can produce electricity in the coil but is totally a waste of time and energy. The electricity produced is less than the electricity used in the two electromagnets. It will be similar to a transformer where one coil was supplied with electricity making it an electromagnet, now another coil near it was affected by the magnetism of the other coil and produce an electricity with a voltage higher or lower. Law of thermodynamics states that you can create or destroy energy but only convert it to another form. So the higher the voltage produced in the other coil the lower the current and the lower the voltage the higher the current, plus take into consideration the lost in electric power dissipated or converted as heat.


Why can moving water be used to produce electricity?

To make electricity we have to turn a coil of wire inside a magnet. Moving water is one way to push the coil.

Why does the generator produce electricity?

Because it is rotating a coil of wire in a magnetic field, and this produces an electric current. It has to be driven by some sort of mechanical engine, which provides the input power.


How does a distributor work?

The distributor takes the electrical output from the coil and sends it to the spark plug. The rotor is the device that transfers the electricity from the coil wire to the spark plug wire.
