How do the input and output parts of a generator and a motor compare?
To explain: The difference between the input and output parts of the generator and a motor
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
- The electric generator is a device that is used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
- The conversion of electric energy into mechanical energy is done by the motor
In the case of an electric motor, the input part of it is electrical energy while the output part is mechanical power. On the other hand, in the case of the electric generator the input part is mechanical power while the output is electrical energy.
Conclusion:
The Motor converts the electrical energy into mechanical energy while the generator changes the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
