No, a magnet is not a conductor. A magnet is an object that produces a magnetic field, while a conductor is a material that allows the flow of electric current.

How can a magnet be used to create an electric current?

An electrical current will flow in a conductor, when a magnet is moved next to a conductor - or when the conductor is moved next to the magnet.


What is the key using a magnet and a conductor to induce a current in the conductor?

A changing magnetic field, in the conductor, can induce a voltage (and, under the correct conditions, that in turn will result in a current). In the case of a permanent magnet, either the magnet or the conductor has to move.

Is magnet is a good conductor of electricity?

Conductor of electricity is sort of the definition of a magnet. Magnets conduct electrical fields; it is what makes them magnets, in very simple terms.


What is the eddycurrent principle?

there is a permanent magnet and a conductor (metal)in relation. when the conductor is moved by cutting the magnetic relay. there will be a charge in the conductor. this is the eddy current priciple

How does a magnet create electricity?

It is not the magnet alone, but the movement of a conductor (wire) in a magnetic field will induce a voltage (and a current, if it is connected in a circuit).


What is the use of magnet in speakers?

Principle is electromagmnetism. When a conductor cuts magnetic field electricity is induced in the conductor (Fixed magnet). When a magnet is moved near a conductor electricity is generated in the conductor (Fixed conductor). In speakers magnet is fixed and the conductor (in the form of a coil is fixed to the back of the diaphragm) is allowed to move freely. As the coil is fixed to the diaphragm the movements of the coil is reciprocated by the movements of the diaphragm. Our voice induces varying current in the microphone and the same varying current is passed through the coil of the speaker hence it moves in the static magnetic field.


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).
