Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the principle behind the working of an electric generator?
  • Step 1: Understand that an electric generator is a device that produces electricity.
  • Step 2: Learn about electromagnetic induction, which is the process that allows generators to work.
  • Step 3: Know that electromagnetic induction happens when a conductor (like a wire) moves through a magnetic field.
  • Step 4: Realize that when the conductor moves, it causes electrons in the wire to move, creating an electric current.
  • Step 5: Remember that the mechanical energy (like movement) is converted into electrical energy (electricity) through this process.
