Generating Electricity (6 marks)​

• In detail describe how electricity is generated in an electrical ​generator.​
• A generator is made from magnets and wires
• An electric current is generated when the wire cuts through the magnetic field
• The more coils of wire the greater the current
• The stronger the magnets the greater the current
• In a generator there is a spinning coil of wire in between two magnets or a spinning magnet in the middle of a coil of wire
• The faster either of the above are spinning the greater the current generated is
