Can moving coil galvanometer be used to detect ac in a circuit give reason?
Moving coil galvanometer is used to detect unknown resitance of the both ac or dc circuits :)deepak instrumentation engineerAnswerA 'galvanometer' is simply an instrument that detects and measures small currents; 'moving coil' describes its operating principle. A moving-coil galvanometer is a d.c. instrument; if subject to a.c., then it will simply vibrate as it will not be able to respond the the frequency (unless the frequency is very low, in which case, it will sweep back and forth in step with that frequency).The moving-coil principle is applied to other instruments, and can be used in the construction of multimeters. In the case of a multimeter, a rectifier circuit is incorporated so that it can be used to measure a.c. currents and voltages.
Is galvanometer generator alternating current or direct current needed to operate an electric motor?
That depends if it is an ac or dc motor.
What are the parts of a direct current generator?
there are many parts of a dc generator armature, field coil, yoke, body, rotor and commutator.
What is the difference between a DC motor and a generator in terms of EMF?
During the operation of a DC motor, EMF is created across its terminals using an external source. Whereas, in a DC generator EMF is created across its terminal based on principle of dynamically induced EMF. So talking in terms of EMF, in DC motor EMF is consumed by the motor coil and utilized to rotate the axle. On the other hand, in DC generator EMF developed across coil is transfered to a load or a battery and consumed by them.
Why are moving iron test instruments not used with DC although they can work in DC?
For moving-iron instrument magnetic field is caused when the current (voltage) passes the fixed circle. When the current (voltage) passes the fixed circle，the two iron plates are magnetized ,rotational torque is resulted, the deflection angle indicate measured current. Because the magnetized polarity is same for AC or DC, moving-iron instrument can be used in AC and DC circuit. For permanent-magnet moving-coil instrument magnetic field is caused by the permanent-magnet, When the DC current passes the moving coil, rotational torque is resulted,so the deflection angle indicate measured DC current. As AC current passes the moving coil ,because inertia of moving parts of meter the deflection angle indicate rotational torque average, but rotational torque average is zero in cycle, moving parts of meter is´t deflec,so permanent-magnet moving-coil instrument only is used in DC circuit.

Which is usually produced by a generator ac or DC?
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
Why moving iron is used in both AC and DC current?
A moving iron instrument works by means of a coil that attracts a moving iron mass that is attached to a pivoted pointer which moves across a graduated scale. The iron mass will be attracted towards the coil, regardless of the magnetic polarity of the coil. So, as an AC current continually reverses the magnetic polarity of the coil, the iron mass is always attracted towards the coil, never repelled by it. Similarly, a moving iron instrument doesn't care in which direction a DC current is flowing. So the instrument works equally well with both AC and DC currents. Moving iron instruments, however, are not as accurate as moving coil instruments which, of course, are sensitive to the direction of current.
