And since it is coiled it can produce a much higher magnetic field than a single conduit like a solid copper plate. The diagram is a simplification of course. Generators have several coils pointed at south poles while their other ends are facing north poles. But the basic generation of electricity is a loop of copper/silver between north and south poles, isn't it? cdn4.explainthatstuff.com/dc-generator-ac-alternator.png | |
