why do we generate sinusoidal ac?can we generate some other
waveforms by alternators?

Answer Posted / d.k.mathur

It is by virtue of rotation of alternator through 360
degree and Fleming's Left hand rule that we get Sine wave.
We cannot generate other wave forms by Alternators. For
other form of Wave Inverters can be used.
