**Question:**

To induce a current in a wire coil, a magnet must be:

- Spinning
- At rest
- Moving
- Strong

**Explanation:**

This multiple-choice question is related to the principles of electromagnetism. To induce an electric current in a wire coil, the magnet needs to change its position relative to the coil, which means the correct choice is "moving." This movement of the magnet causes a change in the magnetic field within the coil, leading to the induction of an electromotive force and, consequently, an electric current, according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.
