Solution

Step-1: Electromagnetic Induction
The process of generating an electric current with a magnetic field is known as electromagnetic induction. When there is a relative movement between the magnetic field and an electric conductor, it forces the conductor to cross the magnetic field force lines.
Step-2: Device Based on Electromagnetic Induction.
Electric Generator
An electric generator (also known as a dynamo) is a mechanism that creates electricity using the electromagnetic induction principle.
