Question:

Which current does an ac motor produces when rotating the motor with a engine or a bicycle?

i have an ac 1 hp motor and when i rotate the motor with an 2T engine or any other which current does the mortor produces and i f the engine is rotating maximum at 500 rpm how much current does the mortor produces

Answer:

if you want to generate electric power mechanically, don't use a motor. either that won't work at all, or it will be very inefficient. instead use an alternator, the kind used with automobiles is ideal.
Ac motor is not a generator but dc motor used as a generator.you can check current via multimeter in series of the load.
Motors do not produce current. Motors consume current.
