Electromagnetic generator

• A machine that uses magnetism to generate electricity.

• A machine or an object that converts mechanical energy into electric energy.

• When electric current flows through a conductor and creates a temporary magnetic field along the conductor.

• An object that functions as a temporary magnet when electric current passes through a conductor arranged as a coil around the object.

Alternator
