Magnetism is a form of Electric in its own Kinetic way. Metals a forced with electricity to create the magnetic field. For instance, find a fairly strong magnet, one that can say, pick up a set of keys, then rub this for about 3 to 5 minutes against a magnet, specifically on either the negative or positive side, whichever it is attracted to. Then after you've rubber it, your paperclip should have a magnetic field around it, try sticking this to another paperclip, it should be magnetic. Its because you have transferred the electronic energy from the magnet to the paperclip by using the magnetic field.

How does a magnet with an on-off switch work?

A magnet with an on-off switch works by controlling the flow of electricity to the magnet. When the switch is turned on, electricity flows through the magnet, creating a magnetic field. This magnetic field attracts or repels other magnetic objects. When the switch is turned off, the flow of electricity stops, and the magnetic field disappears, causing the magnet to no longer attract or repel objects.


How does a magnetic switch work to control the flow of electricity?

A magnetic switch controls the flow of electricity by using a magnet to open or close a circuit. When the magnet is near the switch, it attracts a metal contact, closing the circuit and allowing electricity to flow. When the magnet is moved away, the contact is released, breaking the circuit and stopping the flow of electricity.


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.


What does an electromagnet do and how does it differ from a regular magnet?

An electromagnet is a type of magnet that uses electricity to create a magnetic field. It can be turned on and off by controlling the flow of electricity. In contrast, a regular magnet is always magnetic and does not require electricity to function.


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.

How does a bicycle magnet work to generate electricity?

A bicycle magnet works to generate electricity by creating a magnetic field that interacts with coils of wire in a generator. As the magnet spins with the movement of the bicycle wheel, it induces a current in the wire coils, producing electricity.

Can connecting a specific amount of magnet to one of your electric wires reduce the electricity usage?

No. Your magnet will fight the electricity.


Can a permanent magnet solenoid be modified to work like a permanent magnet linear generator?

yes - need to run electricity through it to make it a linear magnetic generator.

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" :)
