Answer 2

$\large \underline{ \underline{ \sf \: AnsWer \: ! \: \: \: }}$

$\to$ Electric generator is a device used to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy

$\to$It is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction

An electric current produced in a closed circuit by a changing magnetic field is called an induced current , this phenomenon is called electromagnetic induction

Types :

$\to$AC generator - A device which convert mechanical energy to alternating current

$\to$DC generator - A device which convert mechanical energy to direct current
