An electric generator converts kinetic energy into --------<br> energy.

pickupchik [31]

The correct answer to the question is : Electric energy

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we have an electric generator.

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand the function of generator.

The generator is attached to the turbine. When the turbine rotates, the generator also starts rotating with it. Thanks to electromagnetic induction, the electricity is produced in the coil attached to the generator when it rotates.

Hence, from above, it is obvious that kinetic energy is converted into electric energy.

Explanation:

$\to d= r \theta \\\\ \to \theta =\frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega^{r} - \omega_{0}^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta\\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta - \omega_{0}^{r} \\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2 (\frac{F}{Kmr}) \frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega = \sqrt{\frac{2fd}{kmr^2}}$
