In an AC generator an armature is rotated in a magnetic field. This induces an electric current in the armature.
if you want more look on the bottom.
As the crank turns the armature rotates in the magnetic field. One side of the armature moves up, and the other side moves down. The up and down motion induces a current in the wire. The current is in opposite directions on two sides of the armature. After the armature turns halfway, each side of it reverses direction in the magnetic field. The side that moved up moves down, vice versa. The current is induced. As the Armature turns, slip rings turn with it. They are attached to the ends of the armature. As they turn, they make contact with the brushes. The brushes can be connected to the rest of the circuit. In this way, a generator becomes energy source.

Does a generator produce direct current or alternating current?
A generator produces an alternating current, still it gives d.c. output because we use slip-rings at the terminals of actual output of generator.
What is an ac and DC generator?
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
What supplies alternating current?
An alternator (a.c. generator).
What converts direct current to alternating current?
To convert direct current to alternating current you need either an inverter or a motor-generator set.

alternating current
What is the current produced by dry cells?
Alternating current.
Why is a generator called an alternator?
Because it produces alternating current which is then converted to DC
How is a DC waveform produced from the output terminals of a DC generator?
A DC waveform is produced from the output terminals of a DC generator through the action of a commutator, which converts the alternating current induced in the armature windings into direct current by reversing the direction of current flow at the appropriate times. As the armature rotates within the magnetic field, the commutator ensures that the output current remains unidirectional, resulting in a DC waveform at the generator terminals.
