I taught mine to turn off the lights and it gets a treat for it. It knows the trigger for a job done is the light turning off. I think you might have a better chance of teaching the cat
Mine figured out how to use a door handle, and I didn’t even need to train him. He just wanted to be on the other side of the door, and made it happen.
Mine does that too, I used to live in an apartment where the bathroom had a really light door handle (door made of glass) so he went there and meowed in the shower since that was his favourite space to meow. Now I live in a flat with crooked door frames, so every door needs a solid push. The cat stands on the washing mashine with front paws on the handle, and meows at me since it isn’t opening. He jumps at the door handle of the front door, gets spooked by the keys and runs full tilt to the living room to jump on a window. He knows the front door is locked, but I guess he doesn’t care

As an electrical engineer, the very thought of attempting to explain physics to these people makes me want to take a shower.
I’d rather try and explain it to my cat. And I think I’d have the same chance of success.
Actually your cat already knows. He just doesn’t care.
Obviously they know as they were the pharaohs back in ancient Egypt when they build those electrical generators we call “the pyramids.”
