Electricity is generated when a wire or a magnet moves, cutting through magnetic field lines—a process known as . Science Form 3 Chapter 6 Short Notes

Lina combined all her knowledge. She built a (electricity → movement) to spin a magnet near a coil. This induced a current that recharged her battery. Her lantern now stayed bright forever. These are designed to cut through the clutter

The lantern worked, but it was dim. Lina wrapped a copper wire around the rusty iron nail and connected it to a battery. Suddenly, the nail could pick up other nails! Lina combined all her knowledge
