What machine called that changes energy of motion into electrical energy?

dynamo or generator


What is a machine that produces electricity by changing energy of motion into electrical energy?

A generator.


What is a machine that uses an energy source to produce electricity?

A generator generates electricity. A simple generator consists of a magnetic field, relative motion between the conductor and magnetic field, and a conductor to carry electrical current to the load. Turbines drive the generators to create the necessary relative motion utilizing steam or water as the prime mover.

What is the machine in a power station that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy?

The machine in a power station that changes kinetic energy into electrical energy is called a generator. Generators work by rotating coils of wire within a magnetic field to produce an electric current. This current is then converted into electrical energy that can be distributed for use.


What machine converts kinetic energy to electricity?

-- Hand-crank generator -- Hydroelectric generator -- Windmill generator -- Front-wheel generator on a bicycle -- Car generator, run by a belt from a wheel on the crank-shaft -- Any turbine generator, i.e. turned by a shaft which is forced to turn by anything else


Why is the synchronous machine called a reversible machine?

A synchronous machine is called a reversible machine because it can operate in both motor and generator modes. In motor mode, it converts electrical energy into mechanical energy to produce motion, while in generator mode, it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. This ability to switch between modes makes it reversible.


What does a generator do in a scientific defenition?

Generator in scientific definition is a machine that converts one form of energy into another. This is taught in science.
