Answer» CORRECT answer is (b) SYNCHRONOUS generator

Easy EXPLANATION: Generators may be either constant or variable speed type. Variable speed units are expensive and/or unproved. Constant speed generator in use are synchronous induction and permanent MAGNET types. Synchronous unit is used for large aero generator systems. It is very versatile and has an extensive data base.
