A mechanical device that uses wire loops rotating in a magnetic field to produce electromagnetic induction in order to generate electricity.

noise

Physics; General physics

Sounds made up of groups of waves of random frequency and intensity.

electrical energy

Physics; General physics

A form of energy from electromagnetic interactions; one of five forms of energy-mechanical, chemical, radiant, electrical, and nuclear.

non uniform acceleration

Physics; General physics

When the velocity of a body increases by unequal amounts in equal intervals of time, it is said to have non-uniform acceleration.

electrical force

Physics; General physics

A fundamental force that results from the interaction of electrical charge and is billions and billions of times stronger than the gravitational force; sometimes called the.
