What would happen if I move a bar magnet in and out of a coil of copper wire?

• Electric current would disappear 
• The magnet would explode 
• Electric current will flow through the wire
• It would produce a gravitational field

The voltmeter is at 0 in this image. How would you manipulate the experiment to create electricity (measured in volts)?

• Flip the magnet around so the North pole is facing out
• Move the magnet back and forth
• Take the magnet out
• Add more coils around the paper cylinder

Can you produce current in a wire with a magnet that is sitting still?

• Yes; having a magnet near a wire is enough to excite the electrons

• No; the magnetic field has to be changing to excite the electrons

• No; magnets cannot create electricity
