Alternating Current Motors, or AC Motors, are electrical devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy using alternating current. They operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where a rotating magnetic field interacts with the windings of the motor to produce motion. AC Motors are widely used in various applications, from household appliances to industrial machinery, due to their efficiency and reliability. There are two main types of AC Motors: synchronous and asynchronous (or induction) motors. Synchronous motors run at a constant speed, synchronized with the frequency of the AC supply, while induction motors rely on electromagnetic induction to create motion. Both types are essential in modern technology, powering everything from fans to conveyor belts.
