Where can I find information that compares a gas generator versus an electric generator?
A gas generator generates electricity and can be used as a backup in a power outage. I am not certain what you mean by an electric generator. If there was a power outage, how would an electric generator work?
Is an electric power generator safer than a natural gas powered generator?
You can purchase an electric power generator, but it won't do you much good if the electric goes out. A kerosene or deisel generator would be a better choice.
Electric Generator Benefits ?
When selecting a generator for your home, the electric generator stands out from the competition. Compared to gas generators, electric models take up much less space. This can be any essential feature for those using the generator at a vacation home. The electric generator is easy to install. In most cases, the electric generator will need very little maintenance.

Most electric plants use steam to turn a turbine which then turns a generator.
What is the device that uses induction to produce electric power?
electric generator
What is the difference between electromagnets and electric generators?
Really oversimplifying it: an electromagnet converts electric current to a magnetic field and an electric generator converts mechanical rotation to an electric voltage. An electromagnet has no moving parts while an electric generator is composed of a stationary part called the "stator" and a rotating part called the "rotor". An electric generator may contain either permanent magnets or electromagnets, depending on the type of generator.
