How does moving magnet generate electricity?
magnet moves cause all magnets have an electric field around it]
How does wind energy generate energy?
Wind energy can be transformed to a suitable form for human use. It could use turbine connected with dynamo to generate electricity. It could connect the turbine with gear and use the mechanical energy transformed to pump the water or operate a mill. It could use sail to catch the momentum of the wind to sail the ship.
How does turbine generate electricity?
it causes a magnet to spin and generate electricity through the aligning of the electrons in surrounding atoms
What must a magnet do to generate an alternating current?
To generate an alternating current, a magnet must use kinetic energy. This means that the magnet must move at a certain speed and velocity in order to create a strong enough energy charge.
