This is called electromagnetic induction. As the magnet moves, it creates a changing magnetic field which induces a current to flow in the wire coil according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.

A magnet inside a wire loop can produce a current?

Only while the magnet is entering or leaving the loop. If you hold it still, no current is generated. The same goes for a longer magnet where the loop is being moved, but the magnet always remains inside the loop; no current.


How can you produce current in a wire with a magnet that is stationary?

When a magnet is stationary near a wire, it can produce current in the wire through electromagnetic induction. This happens when the magnetic field from the magnet interacts with the electrons in the wire, causing them to move and create an electric current.


Can you genrate electricity by rotating the turbine with the power of a magnet?

Yes, you can generate electricity by rotating a turbine with the power of a magnet in a setup called a magnetic generator. As the magnet moves near a coil of wire within the generator, it induces an electric current through electromagnetic induction. This current can then be used to produce electricity.


What forms of electricity are caused by turning wire inside a magnet?

Rather than turning the wire, it needs to move through a magnetic field. Unless the magnet has infinite length, it will need to come back again, or form part of a coil, which turns within the field. I think the answer you are looking for is AC, (Alternating Current). This is because as the coil turns inside the magnetic field, it first cuts the field one way and then the other as part of its rotation. The direction of the current will also flow one way and then back the other. AC.


How do you produce electricity using a magnet and a wire coil?

By moving a magnet through a wire coil, an electric current is induced in the wire due to electromagnetic induction. This current is generated as a result of the changing magnetic field produced by the moving magnet cutting across the wire coil. This process converts mechanical energy (movement of the magnet) into electrical energy (current in the wire).

What is a magnet that consists of a piece of iron or steel inside a coil of current carrying wire and uses electricity to produce magnetism?

its called an electromagnet... the current running around the core- i.e. the iron or steel piece, alligns the poles of the core according to the current flow. hence after alignment the core acts as a magnet, but when current flow is stopped, the core gets demagnetised. electromagnets have very important applications.


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.

Why do speaker have magnet?

The magnet is part of the 'motor' of the sub. The coil inside the magnet has alternating current running through it. The coil acts as an electromagnet and pulls itself up or pushes itself down moving the cone of the speaker. The bigger the magnet, the stronger the magnetic field inside the speaker where the coil is.


Why does the Hoover Dam create hydro electric power?

If you spin a magnet inside a coil of wire, you will create an electric current. The stronger the magnet, or the larger the coil, or the faster the spin, the more electricity you will generate. Hydro electric power is created the same way. The water behind the dam flows through sluice gates and turns large turbines (these are like propellers) which are attached to generators that produce the electrical current. The generators are essentially magnets inside a coil of wire, or a coil of wire turning inside a magnet - either way will work.
