Electric Motors
• The electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy
• The shaft of a motor is driven by the magnetic forces developed between the armature and field
• Current has to be supplied to the armature winding.
• Motors obey Fleming`s Left Hand Rule
• Electric Motors Fleming`s Left Hand Rule The Left Hand Rule shows what happens when charged particles enter a magnetic field.
Generators
• A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
• A shaft attached to the rotor is driven by a mechanical force
• Electric current is produced in the armature windings.
• Generators obey Fleming's Right Hand Rule
• Generators The Right Hand Rule shows how a current-carrying wire generates a magnetic field.

Are coal and oil motors or generators?
They are neither. Coal is a fuel which can be used to run motors and generators.
What is the difference in functions between generators and electric motors?
the electric motors are round and the generators are square and they are powered by the sunshine the generators blow bubbles and the electric motors blow somkey green gas!! this gas is deadly If you are able, perhaps you can answer this in a serious manner. If you don't know the answer, than please STFU!!
Are motors the same as generators?
No. No. No. No.
What do generators and motors have in common?
Electric motors and generators are electromagnetic devices that are the opposite of each other. Electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while electric generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Explain why electric motors and generators are opposites?
Electric motors take electric energy and turn it into kinetic energy Generators take mechanical energy and turn it into electric energy
How do electric motors and generators use magnetism?
you take the moter
What do electric generators and electric motors have in common?
Stator and rotor
How are motors and generators examples of energy changing forms?
They are because they can.

What are SIC 3621 product lines?
In 2001 the industry's products consisted of four primary product groups: fractional horsepower motors, integral horsepower motors and generators, land prime mover generator sets, and parts and supplies for motors and generators.
How are Motors different from generators?
they go round and round and use gas
Which relay is used to protect generators and motors?
differential protection relay
