Relation between electron and magnet

AI Thread Summary
Magnetism is produced in two primary ways, one of which involves electric currents, while the other pertains to permanent magnets that do not require current. Electromagnetic induction demonstrates how magnets can influence electron movement, suggesting a connection between magnetism and electron motion. Understanding this relationship allows for potential control over electron movement through magnetic fields. The discussion highlights a common misconception about the independence of magnets and electron motion. Overall, the interplay between magnetism and electron dynamics is a key concept in physics.

Hi! In school I was thaught that magnet doesn't have anything to do with the motion of electrons, but then when you see the way electromagnetic induction work, it seems like the magnet move the electrons somehow. How is that possible and can we control the movement? Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad usage of English.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
