1.

a) State the principle of an electric generator b) Write the difference between direct current and alternating current.

Answer»

SOLUTION :a) An electric generation is based on the PRINCIPLE of electromagnetic induction when a rectangular coil is rotated in a UNIFORM MAGNETIC field, an INDUCED voltage is generated between the ends of the coil.
b) Direct current :
* Its magnitude is constant and flows in one direction only.
* The frequency of DC is zero
Alternating current:* Its magnitude and direction reserves periodically. * The frequency of AC is finite.
