Methods In Which Electric Current Can Be Generated
These are the most common ways to generate electric current:
Magnetically- This method involves creating electric current by moving electrons in a wire with a magnet.
When a magnet is moved along a wire or a wire is moved across a magnetic field, this creates the induction of electrons
in the wire,
which creates electric current.
Chemically- This method involves creating electric current by electrochemical generation of electrons.
This occurs from reactions
between chemials and electrodes, such as in batteries.
Photovoltaically-This involves creating electric current by using light as in the initial energy source. When
light strikes semiconductor crystals, the energy of the light is converted to electric current.
