How do guitar pickups turn the signal into electricity?

How does the pickup actually know what the magnets are picking up? And how does it send that to the amp?

When you run electricity through a coil you get an electromagnet. This also works in reverse, if you put a coil of wire in a changing magnetic field, you get electricity. Then that electric signal gets amplified.
