What do magnets have to with electricity?
Faraday showed that a wire passing through a magnetic field will produce electricity. This is how a generator works. Many windings of wire on an armature spin in a magnetic field. This makes electricity.
How does coal power a turbine that goes through a generator to create electricity?
Burning coal is used to heat water to create steam. The pressure caused by the steam is used to turn a turbine. This in turn spins magnets next to wires. This create electricity.
How does a water turbine produce energy?
A water turbine produces energy by transferring the energy from flowing or falling water using a generator. A generator uses copper coils and magnets to create energy. The magnetic field produced from the magnets need to cross over the copper coils which excite the particles in the coils to produce and cause the electricity to flow, making electricity from water.
A particular power source creates electricity through the use of giant magnets that are rotated to create a flow of electrons. This electricity is then directed?
An electric generator -apex 😁
How is a generator useful?
it uses electricity to create a magnet
Do bar magnets use conductive wire and electricity to create a magnetic field?
Bar magnets are already magnetized. They don't need to add wire and electricity.
What do ALL power plants use to create electricity?
A Generator
Do magnets make electricity?
No. Magnets create an electric feild, not electricity.However, when you spin a magnet inside a coil of wire (or you can spin the coil of wire instead), you will create an electrical current.
What machine can turn motion into electricity?
Dynamos and turbines. For example: a windmill converts the kinetic energy of the wind into electric energy.
What directs flowing water through a turbine that spins a generator to create electricity?
Tidal
What devices use magnets to create electricity?
An electrical generator. A microphone. A jet engine vibration detector. It has a magnet moving inside a bobbin with wire wrapped around it. An electric guitar pick up. A tape recorder head. A solar powered Sterling engine. The piston is a magnet and it passes through a coil. A few more.
How do you power generator to create electricity?
The nuclear reactor produces heat which is used to raise steam to feed a steam turbine/generator set
