Electron and Electricity
1. Atom has three types particles:
-Proton (Positively Charged)
-Electron (negatively charged)
-Neutron (has no charge)
2. Electric Current is the movement or flow of the electron. Electric
current can only flow as long as there is a voltage (potential
difference between the positive and negative charges).
3. One of the methods to produce voltage is by magnetism or
magnetic induction that is going to happen in GENERATOR.

Generator principle
There are three requirement to generate electric :
1. Magnetic field
2. Conductor
3. Relative motion between them
