This rotating magnetic field device generates AC current when it is made to rotate by using some form of mechanical energy, like steam or hydropower. This rotating magnetic field device generates AC current when it is made to rotate by using some form of mechanical energy, like steam or hydropower. When the generated current reaches its user and is fed into another rotating magnetic field device, this second device becomes an AC induction motor that produces mechanical energy.

Answer 1

The best evidence to support the statement "Tesla's device uses water to generate electricity" is:

"This rotating magnetic field device generates AC current when it is made to rotate by using some form of mechanical energy, like steam or hydropower."

This statement explicitly mentions "hydropower," which refers to the use of water to generate electricity, thus directly supporting the claim.
