Why does Quito, Equator has very little changes to the daylight hours throughout the year?

1 answer:

4 0

Because of the position on the equator, the change in rotation of the Earth on its axis throughout the year doesn't affect it much. Unlike the poles, Quito is almost constantly in direct view of the sun. So, because of lack of change in rotation, the daylight hours are hardly varied as Quito is almost constantly in more or less the same spot in relation to the sun.

Describe the role of a generator in producing electricity.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

In the process of producing electric energy, always a turbine rotates.

The rotation of turbine is due to the falling water in case of hydroelectric power station, due to the heat energy in thermal power station.

As the turbine rotates, the energy of one form is converted into mechanical energy of turbine. Now the generator converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. It is done by the electromagnetic induction.

When a magnetic flux linked with a coil changes, the induced emf is developed in the coil, this phenomenon is called electromagnetic induction.
