An electric generator is based on_____

An electric generator is based on_____
  1. Faraday's laws of electromagnetic induction
  2. Motion of charged particles in an electromagnetic field
  3. Fission of Uranium by slow neutrons
  4. Newton's laws of motion

Solution

Electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electric energy.

When a coil moves in a magnetic field due to the flux change an emf is induced across the loop which is responsible for induced current in the coil. This basic idea is the working principle of an electric generator.
