Faraday's generator with which he was able to produce a continuous induced current is called
Correct answer: D. Homopolar generator
- A. Tri-polar generator
- B. Multipolar generator
- C. Dipolar generator
- D. Homopolar generator
Explanation
D is the correct answer.Faraday's homopolar generator is the one with which he was able to produce continuous induced current. It consists of a rotating conducting disc placed in a magnetic field, generating a direct current (DC) output.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
