Answer 2

A generator is a coil of copper wire inside a frame set with magnets OR it's a frame set with copper wire with a rotating magnet inside. Bascially, you need to get a wire moving in an magnet field. As the coil spins, driven by water or steam or moving air, current is generated in the wire.
