What is the difference between AC generator and DC generator?

1.	What is the difference between AC generator and DC generator?
Answer» The only difference between a DC generator and an AC generator is in the way the two ends of the generator coil are linked to the outer circuit.In DC generator we connect the two ends of the coil to the commutator consisting of two half rings of copper. On the other hand, in an AC generator, we connect the two ends of the coil to two full rings of copper called slip rings. There is no commutator in an AC generator.
