Best Answer

An ac generator works when the voltages appearing at the two wires alternates between positive and negative and then negative and positive each time when the magnet makes a complete revolution. An AC generator is a simple generator.

Make a tank consisting of two halves. The bottom one stores calcium carbide and the top one water. When the water drips from the top to the bottom half of the tank, it reacts chemically with calcium carbide to give out acetylene or cutting gas.

Calcium carbide+water --> +calcium oxide+Acetylene
