You obviously cannot more a magnet through a coil in the direction of the current, because the magnet must move, axially, along the length of the coil, while the current moves radially, around the coil.
However, if you move a conductor within a coil carrying a d.c. current, then the magnet will induce a voltage into that coil which will oppose the voltage applied to the coil.

∙ 13y agoYes, but an easier method is to run a magnet along the side of a piece of wire in the same direction about 20 times. This same method is used to make makeshift compasses while in the outdoors

How does a voltage cause current to do work?
A voltage will cause electrons or other charge carriers to flow (if there is a path through which they can flow). In other words, it will cause a current.
How do you make a magnet by stroking?
by stroking a magnet the right way you will make the magnet very happy, this will cause it to magnetise better, much like stroking a cat or dog. a happy magnet is a strong magnet
What happens when you put jam on a magnet?
Jam/Jelly has no effect on the magnet or its magnetism, but it will cause the magnet to become sloppy and sticky.
What atmospheric pressure conditions cause thunderstorms?
From the Precipitation and the warm and moist air.But when the winds and heat get to the clouds the clouds will bring the heat and electric currents from the ground,upward.and The heat molicules slowly separate and cause the heat the cause a current to go upward.
How does electricity cause magnetism?
Changing the amount of magnetic field (known as "flux") through a conductor exerts a force on charged particles (electrons in the wire). A change in magnetic field strength in a region of space induces an electric field which circles the magnetic field lines, surprisingly whether or not there is a conductor there or not. It turns out that magnetism and electricity are inherently linked, they are kind of manifestations of the same thing. If "something" has the property of electric charge, it creates an electric field. If that something moves, it creates a magnetic field.
How does an electric generator give electricity?
By rotating a magnet inside of coils of wire. The magnetic lines of flux going through the wires cause a current to flow in the wires.
How can an electric current cause an iron nail to become a temporary magnet?
By making the magnetic field around it a negative charge
A horseshoe magnet is moved back and forth across a piece of copper wire an electric current is detectable in the wire?
yes, it will be very small but the inductance from the magnet should stimulate a current in the wire as it will cause electrons to move.
How does a dynamo generate electricity?
A dynamo passes a magnet past a coil. The movement of the magnet past the wire causes eddy currents to develop which cause electrons to align and move through the wire. If there is enough wire and a strong enough magnet, the current (flow of electrons) is enough to become useful and power a device. It is the growing and shrinking lines of force that cause the electrons to develop this alignment and therefore the electric current.
Does an electric current run through your body during foot detox?
Yes, during the ionic foot detoxication electric current runs through the body of the given patient. The electric current is however very low to cause harm to the body of the patient.
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 do you make electricity using only a magnet?
A moving magnet will cause an electric field - a voltage. This can cause currents in nearby conductors.
How does moving magnet generate electricity?
magnet moves cause all magnets have an electric field around it]
Can Magnetism cause an electric current to flow in a conductor?
Yes, a MOVING magnetic field will cause electric current to flow in a conductor. Conversely an electric current flowing in a conductor will cause a magnetic field.
What cause an electric current to move through a wire?
An electromotive force or potential difference between its ends.
What is the ability of light to cause electron movement and electric current?
The photo-electric effect is the ability of light to cause the movement of electrons, which is called an electric current.
What is the cause of an electric current?
Electric currents are caused by voltages.
