Generator
A generator makes electricity. There are some magnets and a lot of copper wire inside the generator. The generator produces electricity when it is running.
If you have got a dynamo lamp on your bicycle, you already know a generator. The dynamo generates electricity for the lamps on your bicycle, when the wheel of the bicycle makes the wheel of the dynamo turn. A generator also generates electricity in a car. See a photo of a real generator.
