AC Generator

  • An electrical generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.
  • The generation of alternating currents (ac) is based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction.
  • Whenever the magnetic flux changes an emf will be induced in the coil.
  • AC generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy(alternating currents).
  • AC generator is an example of inducing an emf or current in a loop by varying the magnetic field and area vector.

Principle:-

  • Current is induced in a loop through a change in its orientation or a change in its effective area.
  • Induced emf is produced either by changing θ or by changing the area vector.
  • Direction of current is given by Fleming’s right hand rule.
  • Direction of the current in the circuit changes by the up and down movement of the loops.

Construction:-

  • It consists of 2 poles(north and south) of a magnet in order to have uniform magnetic field.
  • There is a coil of rectangular shape also known as armature.
  • The armature is connected to 2 slip rings.
  • Slip rings helps in electrical contact with the brushes.It does not change current direction.
  • The slip rings provide a continuous connectionwith the wire around the armature.
  • These slip rings are attached to carbon brushes.
  • The rectangular coil is capable of rotating about an axis which is perpendicular to the magnetic field.
  • The axis of rotation is known as axle.

 

Working:-

  • At initial time t=0;θ =0 where θ = angle between magnetic field (B) and area vector.
  • Magnetic flux Φ =BA as cos 0 =1.
  • When the coil rotates with the angular velocity ω;
  • After time t, θ = ωt;
  • Φ(t) =BA cosθ = BA cosωt (because θ is changing as a result magnetic flux is also changing)
  • Therefore change in flux occurs; By Faraday’s Law there will be induced emf.
  • Induced emf e=- N (dΦ/dt); where N = number of turns.
  • = –Nd(BA cosωt)/dt
  • e=NBAωsinωt
  • As sinωt is a periodic function,therefore it varies from -1 to +1.
  • Minimum value of e= - NBAω and maximum value of e=+ NBAω.
  • Therefore e =e0sinωt where e0=NBAω
  • Therefore Induced current will change periodically.
  • As the current is changing periodically that is why it is called as alternating current.
  • Rod is getting rotated by some external means; therefore rotation of rod is mechanical energy.
  • This mechanical energy is getting converted toinduce emf because of which induced current is produced.
  • Therefore because of mechanical energy alternating current is generated.As a result electrical energy is generated.

It States that the line integral of the magnetic field B around any closed path in free space is equal to absolute permitivity (nue zero) times the net current I passing through the surface enclosed by the path.

P=2aq,where P is dipole moment, 2a is distance between two dipole and qis charge

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 11 months ago

It is basically the exact measure of the strength associated with an electric dipole. Based on scientific and mathematical conclusions, the dipole moment magnitude is the product of either of the charges and the separation distance (d) between them. Do remember that, the dipole moment is a vector measure whose direction runs from negative to positive charge.

The formula for electric dipole moment for a pair of equal & opposite charges is p = qd, the magnitude of the charges multiplied by the distance between the two.

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 11 months ago

An electric dipole is a pair of equal and opposite point charges q and –q, separated by a distance of 2a.

  • Direction from –q to q is the direction of the dipole.
  • The mid-point of locations of –q and q is called the center of the dipole.
