When does electromagnetic induction occur?
when a wire cuts across lines of a magnetic field
1 of 30
How do you increase an induced emf?
- moving the wire faster - using a stronger magnet - moving the wire into a coil and pushing the magnet in and out of the coil.
2 of 30
How would you find the energy transferred per second from the source (power)?
Induced emf x current
3 of 30
When/why is an emf induced?
there is relative motion between magnetic field and wire
4 of 30
What do the different fingers signify in the right hand rule?
thumb = motion/velocity, first finger = field, 2nd finger = current
5 of 30
What is the right hand rule used for?
Generators
6 of 30
What is Lenzs law?
states that the direction of the induced current is always such as to oppose the change that causes the current.
7 of 30
What is Faradays law of electromagnetic induction in words and as an equation?
States that the induced emf in a circuit is equal to the rate of change of flux linkage through the circuit. Induced emf=-N__/_t = -N_(BA)/_t
8 of 30
What is the equation for magnetic flux _ and the unit?
BA (Wb - Weber)
9 of 30
What is the magnetic flux linkage N_ and its unit?
BAN (Wb)
10 of 30
What is the symbol for magnetic flux density and the unit?
B unit=Tesla T
11 of 30
What equation would you use to find emf induced in a moving conductor in a magnetic field?
_=BLV
12 of 30
What is the emf induced in a fixed coil in a changing magnetic field?
_=AN_B/_t
13 of 30
What is the emf induced in a rectangular coil moving into a uniform magnetic field?
_=BNLV
14 of 30
How would you work out the flux linkage of an alternating current generator?
BANcos(2_ft)
15 of 30
How does the induced emf alternate according to what?
_=__sin(__t) where __=peak emf
16 of 30
How can peak emf be increased?
-increasing speed - using a stronger magnet - bigger coil - more turns on the coil
17 of 30
What is the equation for peak emf __?
__=BAN_
18 of 30
What is back emf?
induced emf that acts against pd applied to the motor in accordance with lenzs law
19 of 30
What is electrical power supplied by source equal to in words and as an equation?
electrical power supplied by source (IV) = electrical power transferred to mechanical power (I_) + electrical power wasted due to circuit resistance (I²R)
20 of 30
How do you calculate the efficiency of an electric motor?
effiecieny=(mechanical power output/electrical power supplied)x100
21 of 30
When observing alternating current, what happens to an oscilloscope waveform trace when you increase the output pd from the signal generator?
The trace becomes taller
22 of 30
When observing alternating current what happens to the ocilloscope waveform trace when increasing the frequency of the signal generator?
Increases number of cycles on the screen
23 of 30
How would you find the mean power over a full cycle for a sinusodial current?
Its half the peak power
24 of 30
What is the definition of the root mean square value of alternating current?
The value of direct current that would give the same heating effect as the alternating current in the same resisitor.
25 of 30
What is the equation to find the root mean square value of alternating current or pd?
RMS = (1/2)x peak value
26 of 30
What is the transformer rule equation?
Vs/Vp=Ns/Np=Ip/Is
27 of 30
How do you calculate the efficieny of a transformer (equation)?
efficiency=(IsVs/IpVp)x100
28 of 30
In a step up transformer, what happens to voltage and current?
Voltage is stepped up, Current is stepped down
29 of 30
In a step down transformer, what happens to the voltage and current?
voltage is stepped down, current is stepped up
