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 is a DC generator the same as?
A DC generator, or "dynamo", is very similar to a DC electric motor but cannot be described as "exactly the same as a motor" because a DC generator's designed purpose is not to "use" electricity (which a DC motor does) but to "make", or "produce", electricity.
Which is used to convert DC to ac?
A power switching circuit called an inverter. You could also use an electromechanical motor-generator: DC motor turning an alternator.
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 do you convert a DC generator to ac alternator?
Turn the DC generator inside out and you have an alternator .
What are the Difference between dc motor and dc generator?
a motor Will do work by consuming power a generator is just the opposite
How do you convert a bicycle light generator into a motor powered by standard 110 v?
You don't. Bicycle gen is dc and you're wanting an ac motor.
What is the difference between a DC motor and a DC generator Why can't you use a DC motor as DC generator?
A DC motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. The converted energy is provided to a mechanical load.A DC generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. The converted energy is provided to the electrical load (voltage, current referring load).A DC motor can be used as a DC generator and vice-versa.
How do you make DC generator?
A DC generator is a DC machine that is driven by an external rotating force. It is constructed the same as a DC motor.
How DC generator is started?
by a hand driven motor or always it is connected with dc motor.
Can a motor works as a generator?
since the physical construction of a DC motor and DC generator is the same,it can work either way.in other words,yes a DC motor can work as a DC generator(if you drive it by a primemover it will produce electricity).however its not possible with all AC motors.
How does the starting of synchronous motor using dc generator as a load work-?
Starting of the synchronous motor using the DC generator creates a magnetic field.
How do you convert ac generator to dc generator?
Such conversions are often inefficient and/or expensive. It requires an external power supply or battery charger to convert AC into DC.
