Give some differences between electric motor and generator ?
In electric motor,it converts electrical energy into , mechanical energy.It is based on magnetic effect of current.Current is supplied to the coil placed in magnetic field by an external energy.As a result of it,coil starts rotating.
In the case of generator,it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.It is based on electromagnetic induction.The coil is rotated in a magnetic field by an external arrangement.As a result,an electric current is induced in the coil.
