Question

Where do you use dynamo in your daily life?

Answer 1

In physics, a dynamo is the name of a DC generator. Nowadays, the term dynamo is mainly used to refer to a small bicycle or tourist generator that powers a bicycle headlight, as well as a small generator built into electric flashlights - the so-called electrodynamic or self-charging flashlights that can operate autonomously without batteries or accumulators. In modern times, the dynamo is also used in some types of simulators, for neon lighting and also in gyroscopic hand trainers.
