What statement describes an AC generator?

An AC generator, or alternator, is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. It produces alternating current (AC) by rotating a coil within a magnetic field, which induces an electric current that changes direction periodically. The frequency of the generated AC depends on the speed of rotation and the design of the generator. AC generators are widely used in power plants and various applications, providing electricity for homes and industries.

How do you step down frequency and voltage from an AC generator?

You step down voltage from an AC generator with a transformer.You step down frequency from an AC generator with a motor/generator set, or with an inverter. This is not a common thing to do.
