A linear alternator is a type of electrical machine that converts linear motion directly into electrical energy, using principles similar to those in traditional rotary alternators but operating in a linear configuration. It typically consists of a coil of wire that moves within a magnetic field, generating an electromotive force (EMF) as it cuts through the magnetic lines of flux. ### Key Components: - **Moving Element:** This is usually a rod or piston that moves linearly.
