The output of a generator can be represented on an induced current–time graph which is shown below. It shows four different positions of the coil of the generator, and the corresponding induced ...

Some people though prefer to dispense with batteries and generate their own power, and that’s what [Thomas D] has done by fitting his bike with an alternator. But this is no off the shelf unit ...

and have greater charging output. The big difference between an alternator and a generator is that an alternator needs a power source to function, whereas a generator does not. There are only a ...

The output of an alternator can be represented on a voltage–time graph, with potential difference (voltage) on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. A – The coil is at 0°.
