What kind of magnets can be used to generate electricity?
Any kind of magnet can be used in a generator or alternator to generate electricity, even an electromagnet (when these are used the generator or alternator is called self-excited). But for the highest efficiency it should be a kind of magnet with a very strong field (so that more lines of flux can cut the conductors in the generator's or alternator's coils).
What principle do Tesla coils use to generate electricity?
The principle of Electromagnetic Induction
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.
How does a gas-powered station work?
A gas fired power station burns gas to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. (That should be a record number of verbs used in one sentence ;-) A coal fired power station burns coal to heat water to generate steam to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A nuclear power station uses the heat of nuclear reactions to heat water ... A hydro power station uses falling water to turn turbines to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to turn coils of wire in magnetic fields to generate electricity.

How do you generate electricity?
There are many ways to get electricity. Batteries are one form, outlets another. But if you want to generate your own electricity, you can use pedal or hand-powered generators, a wind turbine, or a solar panel. Most cars create electricity to power the spark plugs and run the accessories. All forms of consumer electricity are generated by moving spinning magnets past coils of copper wire in a device called an alternator. This can be driven by a steam turbine, a wind turbine, hydroelectric turbine or tidal barrage. (Solar photovoltaic cells generate DC current which must be converted to AC for input to the power grid.)
Is a toaster current or static electricity?
A toaster uses electrical current to generate heat and toast bread. So, the electricity used in a toaster is in the form of electrical current.
How does nature produce electricity?
Natural gas is ignited and the heat is used to boild water and generate steam. Steam is then forced through impeller turbines spinning them in turn spinning Generator Coils that Produce the electricity.
How is electricity made from natural gas?
you burn gas under water and it makes steam. this steam turns a turbine which makes magnets rotate large coils of wire, causing electricity. Answer Gas turbines drive an alternator.
How does natural gas make electricity?
Natural gas is ignited and the heat is used to boiled water and generate steam. Steam is then forced through impeller turbines spinning them in turn spinning Generator Coils that Produce the electricity.

What is a device that changes motion into electricity using magnets and spinning coils of wire?
That would be an electric generator. They are also called dynamos. An alternator is a type of generator that makes alternating current.
