They are neither. Coal is a fuel which can be used to run motors and generators.
coal,oil,uranium,the rivers flow
No. No. No. No.
Electric motors and generators are electromagnetic devices that are the opposite of each other. Electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while electric generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
the electric motors are round and the generators are square and they are powered by the sunshine the generators blow bubbles and the electric motors blow somkey green gas!! this gas is deadly If you are able, perhaps you can answer this in a serious manner. If you don't know the answer, than please STFU!!
Electric motors take electric energy and turn it into kinetic energy Generators take mechanical energy and turn it into electric energy
you take the moter
Stator and rotor
They are because they can.
Coal, like natural gas and oil is burned to boil water into steam. The steam pressure is used to turn giant generators which create the electricity.

By coal fired generators.
In 2001 the industry's products consisted of four primary product groups: fractional horsepower motors, integral horsepower motors and generators, land prime mover generator sets, and parts and supplies for motors and generators.
