Answer: Electromagnetic Induction

Explanation:

When an electrical conductor is moved relative to a magnetic field, an electromotive force (emf) or voltage is generated across the conductor. This generates an electric current.

The process of generating an electric current by moving an electrical conductor relative to a magnetic field is called Electromagnetic Induction.

An emf is induced in the conductor generating electric current when it is moved in a magnetic field.
