What is the difference between an electic motor and an electic generator?
AC motor produce mechanical power and absorbed electric energy the power generator produce electrical power absorbed mechanical power
What are similarities and dissimilarities between a motor and an electric generator?
An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. While an electrical generator does the opposite.
Difference between a generator and a motor?
A generator converts kinetic energy into electrical energy; a motor converts electrical energy into kinetic energy.
What is the opposite of a generator?
electric motor
What are the Difference between dc motor and dc generator?
a motor Will do work by consuming power a generator is just the opposite
What is the difference between energy conversion that takes place in an electric motor with the conversion that takes place in a generator?
In an electric motor, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy to produce motion. In a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy by rotating a coil within a magnetic field. Essentially, electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
What is a backwards working electric motor described as?
Electric Generator. :)
What is the main difference between an electric motor and electric generator?
An electric generator converts mechanical energy to electric energy while a motor converts electric energy to mechanical. A generator can actually act as a motor if it losses whatever is making it spin (called "motoring"), which is usually a very bad thing. Motors may be used as generators as well, depending on their design.
Can an electric motor be used as a generator?
yes
Is there any difference between two words-Electric Drive and Electric Motor?
drive usually makes the motor go
What is the background of the study of generator from a toy motor?
It has electric!
Invented the electric generator and motor?
Nicola Tesla
