the principle of electromagnetic induction.
%. An alternator uses slip rings to pro!ide a means for the generated !oltage to be ta*en
from the de!ice.
5. To form a basic DC generator( the slip rings are replaced with a commutator.
B. The output of the commutator is a pulsating DC wa!eform.
/. .n this case the rotation of the coil produces a current.
E. The current produced is an alternating one.
$. The split rings are replaced with two slip rings.
