So I was on a train and got curious how waterwheels and wind turbines and everything of the sort make electricity so like any normal person would I searched it up. And on google I kid you not all the responses were “it spins the generator making electricity” like what am I dumb or does to at make no sence and explains nothing please help.

A motor converts an electrical current and a magnetic field into a force that turns the motor
A generator is the exact same effect but in reverse. Where we force a coil of wire to spin inside a magnetic field (or vice versa) and it makes a current flow in the coil of wire.
