disk dynamo

A dynamo, or electric generator, is a device that transforms mechanical energy into electricity. Typically found in power plants, these machines produce the electricity needed for home appliances such as heating systems and entertainment devices like TVs and radios. Sources of mechanical energy for dynamos may include wind turbines, water turbines at dams, or steam turbines. An early example is Faraday's disk dynamo, consisting of a copper disk between the poles of a horseshoe magnet, demonstrating the principle of electromagnetic induction.
