How is a moving magnet used to create electricity?
makes current flow through a magnet
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.
Where does a compass point when it is moved close to a magnet?
That depends on which pole of the magnet it is moved close to. If it is brought close to the "South" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be attracted to the magnet. If it is brought close to the "North" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be repelled and will point AWAY from the magnet, while the "South" end of the compass pointer will point to the magnet.
What happens when a magnet is moved alongside a wire?
the electrons in the wire begin to flow
How does force exerted by two magnets change as the magnets are moved farther apart?
When distance between two magnets decrease, the less magnet force the magnet has.
What does copper wire and magnets have to do with Electricity?
a magnet moved through a copper coil makes electricity
What happens when a magnet is moved towards a coil?
You will generate electricity. As the wire cuts through the magnetic field.As the magnet is moved, there will be an induced electro-motive force (EMF) which can cause a current in the coil. Once the magnet stops moving, the current will go to zero.

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 movable magnet?
That means it can be moved.
Do a Vacuum cleaner needs a magnet?
If the vacuum cleaner is powered by electricity this is used to turn the electric motor which is needed to create the suction or vacuum. That motor either has permanent magnets inside it, or the current passes through many "turns" of wire to create magnets when you switch the cleaner on. Early experiment in electricity showed that if a wire is moved in a magnetic field some current is created. Similarly, if a magnet is moved near to a wire the same result occurs. So, yes the cleaner does need a magnet.
Can corn flakes be moved by a magnet?
no. but a frog can be, google: frog levitation magnet
Where does a compass point when it is moved close to a magnet?
That depends on which pole of the magnet it is moved close to. If it is brought close to the "South" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be attracted to the magnet. If it is brought close to the "North" pole of the magnet, the "North" pointer of the compass will be repelled and will point AWAY from the magnet, while the "South" end of the compass pointer will point to the magnet.
How can electricity produce by using magnet?
Electricity is generated when a piece of conductive metal (such as copper) is passed through a magnetic field (or if the magnetic field is moved around the metal). A generator will have a copper wire in the center, surrounded by a magnet shaped like a torus (donut shaped, wire is in the hole in the middle). The wire is stationary. Electricity is generated when the magnet is spun (moving the magnetic field around the wire). This will generate an AC current (alternating current).
How solar energy is formed?
the sun has solar energy so that is one way it is started.
What are the objects that can be moved by electricity on science?
ELECTONS
What distinguishes a permanent magnet from a temporary magnet?
Permanent magnets do not lose their magnetic ability. Temporary magnets, however, gain magnetic properties when they are touched or moved by a permanent magnet. The properties of a temporary magnet dissipates over time after the permanent magnet is removed.
