Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What word best fits this definition:A device which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy usually through the rotation of an electromagnet in the field of a stationary magnet.
A
armature
B
system
C
motor
D
electromagnet
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor’s magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor’s shaft.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, a device which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy is called a motor.

Detailed explanation-3: -electric generator, also called dynamo, any machine that converts mechanical energy to electricity for transmission and distribution over power lines to domestic, commercial, and industrial customers.

Detailed explanation-4: -Electric motor: An electric motor is an electrical device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. Many electric motors work to produce power in the form of torque applied to the motor’s shaft by the contact between the magnetic field of the motor and electrical current in a wire winding.

Detailed explanation-5: -AC generator is a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. The AC Generator’s input supply is mechanical energy supplied by steam turbines, gas turbines and combustion engines. The output is alternating electrical power in the form of alternating voltage and current.
