Question

Which phenomena did Michael Faraday explore to help him invent the motor and the generator?

Answer 1

Hey

Michael Faraday did lot of work on 'Electricity and magnetism '
He postulated 3 laws of 'Electromagnetic induction'

motor and generator are works on these principles /laws.

thanks for asking

Answer 2

Faraday's law of induction

Step-by-step explanation:

Faraday found that a when a conductor is placed in a varying magnetic field, an electromotive force is induced in the conductor. If there is a closed loop, a current is also induced.

Induced emf is proportional to time rate change of magnetuc flux.

`e=(-d\phi)/(dt)=(dB A)/(dt)`

Motor and generator are based on this principle. Motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy where as a generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.
