What is the basic principle behind electrical generators?
Click to flip
The basic principle behind electrical generators is electromagnetic induction, where a conductor moving through a magnetic field induces an electric current.
Click to flip
What components are essential in an electrical generator?
Click to flip
The essential components of an electrical generator include the stator, rotor, armature, field winding, and slip rings (in AC generators).

How does a generator convert mechanical energy into electrical energy?
Click to flip
A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through the movement of a conductor within a magnetic field, inducing current via electromagnetic induction.
Click to flip
What is the role of the rotor in a generator?
Click to flip
The rotor is the rotating component of a generator that creates relative motion with respect to the magnetic field, facilitating electromagnetic induction.
Click to flip
What are slip rings used for in AC generators?
Click to flip
Slip rings are used to provide continuous electrical connection between the rotating coil and outer circuit while allowing free rotation of the coil.
