how does electromagnetism effect the function of a generator (using magnetism to produce electrical energy)

Physics

Sati [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

We know that a changing magnetic field induces a current in a conductor. For that reason a generator basically consist an element that produces a magnetic field that changes over time and a conductor where the current will be induced.

This element that produces a magnetic field can be one of the following:

- A permanent magnet: Which is basically like a regular magnet. The magnetic field that a permanent magnet produces does not change over time, we need a motor or any other external force to move the axis of the generator and cause the magnetic field to change.

- An electro-magnet. Which is basically a DC current flowing through a conductor. Basically, when current flows through a conductor it behaves exactly like a magnet. So what we commonly do, is to connect a conductor to a DC battery, and it will create a magnetic field.

Like we are using a DC battery to create a magnetic field, then the magnetic field won't change over time either. So we still need an external force to move the axis of the generator to produce AC electricity.

How would you explain conduction?
alexira [117]

Answer:

the meaning of conduction is the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.

what is the force constant, in newtons per meter, needed to produce a period of 0.45 s for a 0.011-kg mass on the spring?
topjm [15]

The force constant is 2.145 N/m.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>
  • The spring constant is the force required to stretch or compress a spring divided by the distance traveled by the spring. It is used to determine whether a spring is stable or unstable.
  • K is the proportionality constant, also known as the 'spring constant.' Hooke's law (F = -kx) specifies stiffness and strength via the k variable. The greater the value of k, the greater the force required to stretch an object to a given length.

Using the relation;

T = 2π√m/k

T = time period = 0.45 s

m =  mass of object in kilograms = 0.011kg

k = spring constant

To find k based on the formula,

k = 4 × (3.142)^2 × 0.011 / (0.45 )^2

k = 2.145 N/m

Therefore the force constant is 2.145 N/m.

Three cars with identical engines and tires start from rest, and accelerate at their maximum rate. Car X is the most massive, an
aksik [14]

Answer:C) car X

Explanation:

Given

All the cars have identical Engine thus Force Produced by car X will be equal to  Y and Z

and Force=mass\times acceleration

Since Car X is most massive so acceleration associated with it will be minimum

acceleration of car X is minimum thus it will travel farthest

A 20-kg child running at 1.4 m/s jumps onto a playground merry-go-round that has mass 180 kg and radius 1.6m. She is moving tang
Dominik [7]

Answer:

ωf = 0.16 rad/s

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the child = mr² = 20(1.6²) = 51.2 kg•m²

Moment of Inertia of the MGR = ½mr² = ½(180)1.6² = 230.4 kg•m²

(ASSUMING it is a uniform disk)

Initial angular momentum of the child = Iω = I(v/r) = 51.2(1.4/1.6) = 44.8 kg•m²/s

Conservation of angular momentum

44.8 = (51.2 + 230.4)ωf

ωf = 0.15909090...

If a ball is thrown alt 96 m/s, and it travels 3 seconds, what is the total distance the ball travelec
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: 288 m

Explanation: 288 m is the correct answer because the question states that the ball is thrown at 96 m every second, and our question tells us that the ball travels 3 seconds. This means we have to multiply 96 x 3 = 288 m.
