how the alternator transfere mechanical energy to
electrical one ??

Answer Posted / shaikh

The key different between an alternator and a generator is
what spins and what is fixed. On a generator windings of
wire (the armature) spin inside a fixed magnetic field. On
an alternator, a magnetic field is spun inside of windings
of wire called a stator to generate the electricity.
