Question

Which best contrasts an electric generator and an electric motor? In a generator, slip rings function as a solenoid, and in a motor, an armature functions as a solenoid. In a motor, slip rings function as a solenoid, and in a generator, an armature functions as a solenoid. A generator converts electrical energy to kinetic energy, and a motor converts kinetic energy to electrical energy. A generator converts kinetic energy to electrical energy, and a motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

A generator converts kinetic energy to electrical energy, and a motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Just remember a generator makes electricity, and motors move things therefore creates kinetic energy.

Answer 2

Electric motors require electricity to move the motor parts and do work (like an electric fan).
Elecgric generators actually burn diesel fuel to spin a motor around and around and around to GENERATE, or MAKE, electricity that you can then use to power your fans and lights in your house.
