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 can geothermal be used to produce electricity?

How can you produce 220V electricity?
To produce 220 volts of electricity you would need some form of a generator or alternator with the correct configuration to output 220V. The other ways to produce 220 V: (1) Using a step up transformer if the voltage is lower than 220 V. (2) Using a step down transformer if the voltage is higher than 220 V.
Which produces more electricity lemons or oranges?
The lemon does produce more electricity than oranges. BUT in rare cases an orange can produce more electricity than a lemon. But overall its the lemon that's the best.
How you will get resedual magnatism?
If the question is "How do you create residual magnetism", one simple answer is as follows... You can "induce" a magnet in ferrous (containing iron) material using another magnet. Take the item you wish to make into a magnet (can be done using a simple magnet and a nail, in home experiments). An old stereo speaker magnet is best as it is relatively easy to find and pretty strong. Rub the magnet evenly and repeatedly ONE WAY down the item you wish to be magnetized (like from the nail head towards the point), almost like you are sharpening a knife. The longer you do this, the better magnet you will create (based on the size and material in your item and the strength of the inducing magnet). Over time, this induction will dissipate and you will have to re-induce the item. A more efficient, and a tiny bit more difficult method is electromagnetic induction, in which you would use a battery and a copper coil wrapped around the nail to create a flow of electrons (current) through the nail resulting in simultaneous magnetism. You can find easy instructions on how to do this just about anywhere on the web. You can SEE this happening by using a magnet near an old TV set screen, the magnet will induce or change the flow of electricity and produce warped colors. Don't use the family TV set, though, the colors sometimes STAY messed up 8). Have fun experimenting 8)
How renewable and non-renewable enerygy sources produce electricity?
They produce electricity be burning coal and then the coal is used to heat, light and do lots of other things.
Can a magnet be used to produce electricity?
A spinning magnet inside a coil of copper wire will produce electricity.
How do you produce electricity from magnetism?
One way you can produce electricity is by using a U shaped magnet and pushing a metal string in the U shaped magnet!You use a galvanometer attached to the string and when you push it, it will become electrical energy! (A galvanometer measures electricity.)
How does a magnet produce electricity?
It is weird
What can produced electricity?
Well, Many things can produce electricity. An easy way to produce electricity is to get a coil and pass a bar magnet through it.
How can I produce electricity from magnets at home?
To produce electricity from magnets at home, you can create a simple generator using a coil of wire and a magnet. When the magnet moves past the coil, it induces an electric current. This can be used to power small devices or charge batteries.
What can produce electricity to make a magnet?
Electricity can be produced by various methods such as generators, batteries, and solar panels, which can then be used to power a magnet.
What is a strong temporary magnet that uses electricity to produce magnetism?

How do you make electricity using only a magnet?
Electricity can be generated using a magnet in combination with a coil of wire. When the magnet moves past or through the coil, it induces an electric current in the wire due to electromagnetic induction. This phenomenon is the basis of how generators produce electricity in power plants and electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.
How can electricity be produced using a magnet and wire coil?
Electricity can be produced by moving a magnet through a wire coil, which induces a current in the coil. This process is known as electromagnetic induction and is the basis for how generators work to produce electricity. The moving magnetic field created by the magnet interacting with the wire coil creates an electric current to flow in the wire.
How does a dynamo produce electricity?
when it moves back and fort it produces electricity no when the MAGNET moves back and fort it produces electricity dumboe
A machine that uses a magnet to make electricity is called?
A generator is a machine that uses a magnet to produce electricity. As the magnet rotates within coils of wire, it induces an electric current to flow, generating electrical power.
How are eltromagnets used in generators?
Any time a magnet passes through a coil of copper wire (the electro magnet) it produces electricity. In all reallity, you don't really have an electro magnet in a generator. Since the Coil or(field) is making the electricity instead of using electricity, the electro magnet isn't really a magnet; but more like an "anti-magnet" :)
