What else can I help you with?
What is a hydro electric generator?
Hydro- means water. A hydro-electric generator uses moving water from a river or dam to turn the generator and produce electricity.
What is produced by a generator?
The general term generator is usually applied to the kind of generator that produces electricity, or electric power.
What is electric power generation?
An electric power generator is a generator the converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. That way you can get energy from the generator to produce electricity to places like your home.
Explain how we can produce electricity by turning a turbine?
Electricity can be produced by turning a turbine through a process known as electromechanical energy conversion. When a turbine is rotated by a force such as wind, water, or steam, it spins a shaft connected to a generator. The rotation of the turbine causes the generator to produce electricity as the magnetic field created within the generator interacts with the conductive coils, inducing an electric current.
Are there magnets in a electric generator?
In a typical electric generator, there are magnets that help generate electricity through the process of electromagnetic induction. These magnets create a magnetic field that interacts with the coils of wire in the generator to produce an electric current.
Which device works by rotating a wired coil within a magnetic field to produce electric?
generator
How do you convent wind to energy?
The short and simple answer is this: A wind turbine consists of blades; similar to those of a helicoptor. These blades are attached to a generator. As wind causes the blades to move, the blades turn the generator to produce electricity. As to how a generator works; I'll have to leave that up to someone else to explain.
What is the difference between an electric motor and an electric generator in terms of their functions and operations?
An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy to produce motion, while an electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy by inducing a flow of electrons. In essence, a motor uses electricity to create movement, while a generator creates electricity from movement.
How do generator's produce electricity?
generators produce electricity via electromagnetic induction
Describe briefly the working of a hydro electric power station?
Turbine is moved with flow of water and this is coupled with generator to produce electricity
A machine that uses a magnet to make electricity is called?
A generator is a machine that uses a magnet to produce electricity. As the magnet rotates within coils of wire, it induces an electric current to flow, generating electrical power.
Why does the coil have to spin in a generator?
A coil has to spin in a generator to produce electricity.
