Yes.
Certain types of motor. The best for this are DC motors with a permanent magnet field.
DC motors with a field windings, need an excitation voltage to produce power.
Simply rotate the motor, with an external force and DC current comes out of where you normally put power in.
AC motors, induction motors, (squirrel cage type, typically used for domestic fans) are no good.

What can change an ac current to a DC current?
rectifierac motor - dc generator set
How does ac electric motor convert in to an alternator?
a motor is a generator and a generator is a motor, if you are applying a voltage to turn the rotor its a motor and if you are turning the rotor and taking the voltage off the terminals its a generator or alternator.
Why is a motor is a reverse function of generator?
from Faraday's laws its clear that when ever there is change in flux, an emf is produced. in a dc motor there are permanent magnets that produce a magnetic flux. If the shaft of the motor is rotated, which in tern rotates the coil that is placed in the magnetic field. Thus, changing the flux that cuts the coil. since there is change in flux an emf is induced.thus, a dc motor can be used as a generator.
Can you use a dc generator as a dc motor?
Yes you can turn a motor into a generator, if it is a permanent magnet motor.
Is it possible that you use motor as a generator input and electricity of the generator provide to a motor as a input?
If I'm understanding the question, you are proposing using one motor and one generator, and have the motor spin the generator up to speed, and have the generator attempt to supply power to the motor. The answer is yes, you can do this, but you will be losing energy, not gaining it. The motor and generator's efficiencies are less than 100%, so once you remove the outside source they will slow down until they come to a complete stope, without any other load connected other than themselves.
How do you change over a ac motor to a dc generator?
Type your answer here... how can you change an ac motor to a dc generator
How does a generator use electromagnetic induction?
There is a motor in a generator which carries out this electromagnetic induction,as we switch on the generator the magnetic field lines between that motor get cuts off by the rotating coil which cause change in flux and change in flux cause induced emf,cue to emf at different points of coil cause current to get flow and then generator will get on.
What can change an ac current to a DC current?
rectifierac motor - dc generator set
Why load angle is positive for generator and negative for motor?
simply put a motor consumes power and a generator produces it. reactance of a generator = - reactance of a motor
Can a motor operate as generator?
Yes, by giving mechanical power to motor . It acts as a Generator.
Did Mike Faraday invent the generator and motor?
Mike Faraday did invent the generator and motor.
How does ac electric motor convert in to an alternator?
a motor is a generator and a generator is a motor, if you are applying a voltage to turn the rotor its a motor and if you are turning the rotor and taking the voltage off the terminals its a generator or alternator.
How do you identify a motor and a generator without operation?
a motor drives something a generator is driven by something
How do you convert a DC motor to a generator?
all the electrical machines can be run either as a motor or as a generator. but dc machines, A motor can be run as generator and vice versa with little modification

What size of generator to run 5.5kw 400v 50Hz motor?
You need a 5.5kw generator to run a 5.5kw motor.
How is a motor different from a generator and how is a generator different then a mot or?
A motor takes electricity and creates rotating motion. A generator takes rotating motion and turns it into electricity.
