    Faraday's law says that a conductor in motion near a magnetic field will exert an electrical potential, and current will result. Thing is you need three things: a magnetic field, a conductor, and relative motion. The obvious example is a generator, where you have a conductor traveling through a magnetic field. A similiar idea is transformer action, where a changing magnetic field (motion) induces an electrical field in a neighboring coil.
