The action is called a sacrifice.

The batter may bunt the ball to move a runner to scoring position.

The batter may hit a fly ball into the outfield so that the runner on third can tag up and cross the plate.

The batter may hit a ball that goes to a certain part of the infield where the only play the fielder can make is to first.

Does the batter get a sacrifice if the runner on first tags and goes to second?

Yes as long as the runner advances Assuming you mean the runner tags up on a fly ball and advances to second, it is not scored as a sacrifice, but, simply as a fly out and the batter is charged with a time at bat. If the batter bunt a ground ball, the runner would not be required to "tag up" to advance and the batter would be credited with a sacrifice.
