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.

Answer:

n=6.56×10¹⁵Hz

Explanation:

Given Data

Mass=9.1×10⁻³¹ kg

Radius distance=5.3×10⁻¹¹m

Electric Force=8.2×10⁻⁸N

To find

Revolutions per second

Solution

Let F be the force of attraction

let n  be the number of revolutions per sec made by the electron around the nucleus then the centripetal force is given by

F=mω²r......................where ω=2π  n

F=m4π²n²r...............eq(i)

as the values given where

Mass=9.1×10⁻³¹ kg

Radius distance=5.3×10⁻¹¹m

Electric Force=8.2×10⁻⁸N

we have to find n from eq(i)

n²=F/(m4π²r)

n^{2} =\frac{8.2*10^{-8} }{9.11*10^{-31}* 4\pi^{2} *5.3*10^{-11}  }\\ n^{2}=4.31*10^{31}\\ n=\sqrt{4.31*10^{31}}\\ n=6.56*10^{15}Hz
