How does an electric motor work

Physics
1 answer:
Strike441 [17]4 years ago
7 0
AC motors work a slightly different way: they pass alternating current through opposing pairs of magnets to create a rotating magnetic field, which "induces" (creates) a magnetic field in the motor's rotor, causing it to spin around. You can read more about this in our article on AC induction motors.

An electron enters a region with a speed of 5×10^6m/s and is slowed down at the rate of 1.25×10^-4m/s². How far does the electro
Mashutka [201]

1) The distance travelled by the electron is 1\cdot 10^{17} m

2) The time taken is 4.0\cdot 10^{10}s

Explanation:

1)

The electron in this problem is moving by uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration), so we can use the following suvat equation

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance travelled

For the electron in this problem,

u=5\cdot 10^6 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity (it comes to a stop)

a=-1.25\cdot 10^{-4} m/s^2 is the acceleration

Solving for s, we find the distance travelled:

s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{0-(5\cdot 10^6)^2}{2(-1.25\cdot 10^{-4})}=1\cdot 10^{17} m

2)

The total time taken for the electron in its motion can also be found by using another suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

Here we have

u=5\cdot 10^6 m/s

v = 0

a=-1.25\cdot 10^{-4} m/s^2

And solving for t, we find the time taken:

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-5\cdot 10^6}{-1.25\cdot 10^{-4}}=4.0\cdot 10^{10}s
