Generator principle: a current moving relative to a magnetic field will have a voltage induced into it.
Motor principle: a current-carrying conductor within a magnetic field will experience a force that will try to push that conductor out of the field.

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.
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.
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.
Is it possible that you use motor as a generator input and electricity of the generator provide to a motor as a input?
If I'm understanding the question, you are proposing using one motor and one generator, and have the motor spin the generator up to speed, and have the generator attempt to supply power to the motor. The answer is yes, you can do this, but you will be losing energy, not gaining it. The motor and generator's efficiencies are less than 100%, so once you remove the outside source they will slow down until they come to a complete stope, without any other load connected other than themselves.
How does ac electric motor convert in to an alternator?
a motor is a generator and a generator is a motor, if you are applying a voltage to turn the rotor its a motor and if you are turning the rotor and taking the voltage off the terminals its a generator or alternator.
Why is it said that generator is a motor working in reverse?
because working principle of both the things are same.The motor converts electrical energy in to mechanical via magnetic induction and generator do the exact opposite of this.And yes,you should use 'electricity generator' not only 'generator'.
When you supply mechanical energy as input to the motor what will happen?
Then the motor will act as generator by principle
What is the difference between electricmotor and generator?
An electric motor is an AC motor which works with alternating current But Generator is D. C motor that works under the principle of direct current
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.
Why generator has the better efficiency than motor?
becoz alternater has work on principle of electomagnetic induction .

What is back motor effect in generator?
When current is induced in the rotating coil in an electric generator then a counter couple acts on the current carrying rotating coil in the magnetic field(in accordance to the principle of dc motor). This counter couple is called back motor effect.
What are the differences between the parts of a generator and the parts of a motor?
In principle a generator is the same as a motor. In a dc motor the voltage generated by the rotating armature is slightly less than the supply voltage which causes power to flow in from the supply. If an engine is then coupled to the shaft causing it to rotate faster, then it generates more voltage and power flows back into the supply. That is how a motor becomes a generator.

How much kva is required to run a single phase 5hp motor using generator?
To answer this question the voltage of the motor is needed.
What is the basic principle of Generator excitation?
The basic principle of generator excitation is that once the gasket of tie generator is being checked, the generator excits as if the block is not inserted. By egbebu emmanuel
