Single-loop DC generator: a coil rotates in the pole flux; the split commutator and brushes deliver DC to the load

DC motor: field armature current gives conductor forces F and torque; the rotating armature develops a back-EMF E_b

Both machines use a rotating stator field; the induction rotor slips below N_s, the synchronous rotor locks to N_s
