That depends if it is an ac or dc motor.
A motor can be connected up to a car battery to store the power produced when it runs as a generator, but you will find that when current is drawn the motor needs more work to spin it, it will not spin so easily. That is because of conservation of energy.
Because a generator extracts energy from whatever is rotating it and passes this (by the electric current it produces) down the circuit to the motor (or light bulb or heater) where it is used. When there is no complete electric circuit, no electricity can flow so no (little) energy is extracted, but when the circuit is closed, electricity does flow and the armature is more difficult to turn.
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
Electric Generator. :)
Both a generator and an electromagnet involve the use of coils of wire with an electric current flowing through them. In a generator, the motion of the coil creates an electric current, while in an electromagnet, the electric current produces a magnetic field.
a generator
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
A generator moves a coil of wire through a magnetic field and that induces a current in the coil .
A generator is a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, producing electric current. It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction where a coil of wire rotating in a magnetic field creates an electric current.
First ac has to be rectified into dc and then that could be stored in a secondary cell in the form of chemical energy.
To increase the amount of electric current produced by a generator, you can increase the rotational speed of the generator, increase the strength of the magnetic field within the generator, or increase the number of turns in the generator coils. These methods will result in a higher induced voltage and therefore a higher electric current output.
The rotor turns (rotates) causing magnetic fields to move across a coil of wire. This induces an electrical current in the wires of the coil.
A generator produces electric current by converting mechanical energy into electrical energy through the process of electromagnetic induction. This involves rotating a coil of wire within a magnetic field, which creates a flow of electrons and generates an electric current.
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.
direct current
An electric device that produces an electric current that reverses direction many times per second. Also called a synchronous generator.
