A generator is constructed by placing a coil of wire in a magnetic field. The coil is rotated in a clockwise direction in the magnetic field at a constant rate to induce a current in the wire. If the coil of wire is rotated in a counterclockwise direction at the same constant rate, which of [...]

I am researching AC electric generators, and have seen three different descriptions for the simple design. So I written these three choices up myself, and want to know which is most common: A. Wire windings as stator, more coils of wires as rotor. Current fed to rotor, become electromagnet and produces magnetic field, rotates (through [...]

I have made these two choices up myself, as I know it should be either one of these but I don’t know which one… A. Stator windings, coils of wires as rotor. Current fed to rotor, become electromagnet and produces magnetic field, rotates (through heat, wind etc) and induces current in stator windings which AC. [...]

Is it in the number of coils? For an AC generator, how does the coil continually rotate up and back down again? Does it have to do with force from a magnetic field? Any diagrams helpful. Thanks.
