That depends if it is an ac or dc motor.
A motor can be connected up to a car battery to store the power produced when it runs as a generator, but you will find that when current is drawn the motor needs more work to spin it, it will not spin so easily. That is because of conservation of energy.
Because a generator extracts energy from whatever is rotating it and passes this (by the electric current it produces) down the circuit to the motor (or light bulb or heater) where it is used. When there is no complete electric circuit, no electricity can flow so no (little) energy is extracted, but when the circuit is closed, electricity does flow and the armature is more difficult to turn.
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
Electric Generator. :)
generator
a generator
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
The rotor turns (rotates) causing magnetic fields to move across a coil of wire. This induces an electrical current in the wires of the coil.
First ac has to be rectified into dc and then that could be stored in a secondary cell in the form of chemical energy.
direct current
An electric device that produces an electric current that reverses direction many times per second. Also called a synchronous generator.
A generator can be used as a temporary source of power
electric current generate so many types one of mechanical energy convert electrical energy by using generator
An electric current HAS energy. The energy comes from whatever caused the electric current to flow in the first place - for example, a generator, or a battery.
When a conducting material is moved through a magnetic field, a current starts to flow in the conductor. This is the principle of the electric generator.
