Generator
electromagnets and electro moters
A generator in a power plant converts rotating kinetic energy into electrical energy An electric motor is a device which changes electrical energy into kinetic. For example-- Fans could be like electric energy to kinetic energy...
They don't. An electric motor is designed to convert electrical energy to kinetic energy, not the other way round. A device that converts kinetic energy to electrical energy is called a generator or a dynamo. Sometimes the same device can do both things (convert in both directions), but since the device is especially optimized for one function, it may not be very good at the other one.
A generator converts kinetic energy into electrical energy; a motor converts electrical energy into kinetic energy.
Yes, because it is not 100 % efficient at converting electrical energy into kinetic energy.
An electric motor converts electrical energy into kinetic energy.
A solar cell converts light into electrical energy.
Kinetic Energy
No, it converts electricic energy into electromagnetic energy (heat and light)
The device which convert mechanical energy in to electrical energy is "Dynamo".
microphone
The potential energy in the head of water is converted into kinetic energy in the turbine which converts the kinetic energy into electrical energy. Potential Energy of water -> Kinetic Energy -> Electrical Energy
