What objects are needed to induce an electrical current?

There are two ways

Inducing current on a coil by moving the coil in a magnetic field.

Inducing current on a coil by by changing the magnetic field across it.

So you would need a coil and a magnet

If a coil of wire is placed in a changing magnetic field, a current will be induced in the wire. This current flows because something is producing an electric field that forces the charges around the wire.

supercell thunderstorms are perhaps the most violent of all thunderstorm types, and are capable of producing damaging winds, large hail, and weak-to-violent tornadoes
