Some fish have the ability to detect electric fields. If they use fish
oil in electros then perhaps these are bio-electric?

Speaking of electric fields, would a conductor moving through a
stationary electric field produce an emf?

I know it happens the other way around for example an antenna, where a
changing electric field sets up an emf along the radial. However, in
the case of the antenna there is also a supporting magnetic component.

We all know in the case of a stationary magnetic field the moving
conductor will have an emf induced. Will it also happen if we
substitute an electric field? If it does what is this effect called?
