A: Potentiometer does not produce any signal it is merely a variable resistor whereby any signal impressed on it can be variably taken out of the wiper as a linear function or logarithms function depending on the requirement of the design

What is the difference between audio generator and signal generator?

Audio generator will produce some range of frequency and level of a test signal meant for audio. A signal generator will produce a test signal but is a more general classification. For example a audio generator is a signal generator. When you know what type of signal you are looking for, then a signal generator will be called that type of signal. all depends on what you are testing. examples: video -> video signal generator audio -> audio signal generator

What does a potentiometer do?

A potentiometer varies the amount of current through an electrical or electronic circuit. EX: the volume control on your radio is a potentiometer. In today's electronic circuitry, digital circuits that change resistance do the same job as the rotary type control do. They tend to be more accurate.
