Question:

Physics current help?

Describe two ways in which you could create a current with a copper wire and a bar magnet. Be explicit about the orientations of the wire and magnet. What law of physics is involved here?

Answer:

Move the loop of wire through the magnetic field of the magnet such that the magnetic field through the loop changes, or move the magnet though the loop of wire such that the magnetic field through the loop changes, . . . Faraday's law of induction.
