Will a 2 stroke boat motor stay running without a generator?

yes


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.


What are the 2 main parts of a generator and motor?

The two main parts of a generator and a motor are the stator and the rotor. The stator is the stationary component that generates a magnetic field, while the rotor is the rotating part that interacts with the magnetic field to produce mechanical energy in a motor or electrical energy in a generator. In both devices, the interaction between the magnetic field and the rotor is key to their operation.


Why load angle is positive for generator and negative for motor?

simply put a motor consumes power and a generator produces it. reactance of a generator = - reactance of a motor


Why is necessary to control over speed in a motor?

over speed control is recommended for all prime mover driven generator to prevent over frequency operation of load connected to a system supplied by the generator and also to prevent possible over frequency operation of the generator itself from Ac system.

Can a motor operate as generator?

Yes, by giving mechanical power to motor . It acts as a Generator.


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.


How do you convert a DC motor to a generator?

all the electrical machines can be run either as a motor or as a generator. but dc machines, A motor can be run as generator and vice versa with little modification


How many watts can be powered by a 9 volt generator?

There is no way to answer without knowing the wattage rating of the 9 volt generator. A generator's wattage rating depends on the size of the wire in it, the wattage of the rectifiers if it is a DC generator, and the horse power of the engine or motor that is available to turn the generator.
