Expert Answer:

Principle : DC generator


  Hence, the basic essential parts of an electric generator are :

   A magnetic field and



Alternating voltage may be generated by rotating a coil in the magnetic field or by rotating a magnetic field within a stationary coil. The value of the voltage generated depends on-

1.) the number of turns in the coil.

2.) strength of the field.

 3.) the speed at which the coil or magnetic field rotates.
