An AC or alternating current generator is a piece of machinery that produces AC electricity. Most commonly this machine is powered by steam.in simple terms it consists of a series of blades that are turned by steam.a magnetic field is excited on the rotor which then cuts through lines of magnetism that are present on the stator by the power grid. As more power is applied to the rotor, the turbine must spin harder,not faster, to push more power onto the grid. RPM of rotor is determined by the number of poles in the stator. Most commonly a turbine will spin at 3600rpm.... or, 60 times per second giving us the USA electrical grid a 60Hz frequency. This is scratching the paint on AC generation but its a start.

Why load angle is positive for generator and negative for motor?
simply put a motor consumes power and a generator produces it. reactance of a generator = - reactance of a motor

Line BE is the bisector of segment AC. If AB 7 then AC .?
If line BE is the bisector of segment AC, it means that BE divides AC into two equal segments. Therefore, if AB is 7, then AC must be twice that length, making AC equal to 14.
What is Ac in math?
There is no special term "ac" in math, as far as I know. However, in physics, "AC" means "alternating current".
If Line BE is the bisector of segment AC. If AB 7 then AC how many units.?
If line BE is the bisector of segment AC, it means that it divides AC into two equal parts. Given that AB is 7 units, it implies that the length of AC is twice the length of AB. Therefore, AC is 2 × 7 = 14 units.

Which is usually produced by a generator ac or DC?
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
Does an alternator work similar to an ac generator?
Alternator and ac generator is equal
Does a generator produce ac or DC voltage?
NO, generator always generating AC current,when commutator is used,at that time AC is converted in DC.and due to this generator is called dc generator.
Is dynamo an AC generator?
DC generator
How do you step down frequency and voltage from an AC generator?
You step down voltage from an AC generator with a transformer.You step down frequency from an AC generator with a motor/generator set, or with an inverter. This is not a common thing to do.
What is another name for an ac generator?
an induction generator
Is ac power produced first in a dc generator?
It can be, however AC power is generally produced directly by an AC alternator/generator.
