In 1831, Michael Faraday discovered that a rate of change of flux would induce an EMF, and this would, in a closed circuit , induce an electrical current.
This is the key principles of Faraday's Law.
This forms the foundation for electrical generation, either AC or DC

This animation reviews Faraday's Law.
The basic principle of a generator is the regular changing magnetic field acorss the coils
Turn on both voltage and field lines
How would you need to move the magnet to get a a fluctuating current

Theory
This video examine the key principles of generators. Starting with a demo, and then a simple model, I take you through the concepts and also discuss the difference between AC and DC generators |

This next video is useful to compare motors with generators |
