Answer: A generator consists of a rotating wire coil placed in a magnetic field. This process transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Explanation:
Energy can transform from one form to another.
When a rotating wire coil is placed in a magnetic field, electric current flows through the coil. This is due to Faraday's law which states that when a conducting coil is placed in a changing magnetic field, an emf is induced. Electric current flows in the coil.
Mechanical energy of rotation converts to electrical energy.
