I knew it, a bloody net surfer pretending he even understands the conversation, and array is an arrangement, to induce is to force something else to caustion a current is a name given to a measurable force of electrial energy, so an arrangement of magnets with alternating poles will when passing a coil or having a coil pass before it will induce/force the coils to produce/cause a current or a measureable amount of electrical energy.

You can add that to wikpedia if you like, i am sure no electrician or electrical engineer would argue the explanation.

your problem is, that as you know so little about fields and induction, you continue to make a fool of yourself looking for something that is a description not an object.

Night night, off to neverland now hooky

for those who don't know and don't prtend to, knowing how to use google always helps

Lentz law? you don't even know what that means you dickhead, more resistance?? it's not friction resistance you idiot, it is OHMS resistance, hwo much current passes through the wire you .

Not to beat a dead horse... BUT:

- - - -
"Lenz's law encapsulates the fact that the current swirls in such a way as to create an induced magnetic field that opposes the phenomenon that created it. In the case of a varying applied field, the induced field will always be in the opposite direction to that applied."
- - - -

Thus the magnetic field created in the wire in which the current was induced will be attracted to the magnet creating the current - creating DRAG

It has NOTHING to do with OHMS

Correcting your misunderstandings of basic science gets tiresome....

Yepper - spot on.  Now what happens when that current is induced in the coil?  Lenz's Law!

Edit: BTW - the device you are describing is an "alternator" or "generator"

The term "current inducer array" is one "invented" by you......

Hi All
I just wanted to say CapHook is right but you just have to google to find out, having said that there maybe a system the will not put drag on the wheel and thats a fariday wheel which is  magnets in the middle of the wheel with a copper disk between them but I'm not sure if the brushes to pick up the current will cuz to much drag.

Hi All
Theres two things that don't sit right with what I just said first because the wheel has to be perfectly weighted to rotate then any drag will stop it even something as small as brushes and second for the Fariday disk to give you any usfull current the wheel would have to spin fast and from what I hear if it spins at all it isn't fast.
