This PowerPoint lesson on Generators shows how a rotating coil within a magnetic field can produce a sinusoidal output voltage (potential difference) in a circuit. Oscilloscope readings for an AC suply are looked at in detail so that students can calculate the peak voltage and time period from a diagram. Output wave forms are considered and examples are shown on how these change when the variables of the rotating coil are changed. Finally the engineering systems in a power station generator are covered.
This is the seventh (of 8) lessons in this section entitled “Magnetism and Electromagnetism” which is available as a bundle in our shop.
This PowerPoint lesson on Transformers covers the application of induction to the construction of AC transformers. The mathematics and formulae for both power and voltage across transformers is covered, together with a worked example. There is also a comprehensive set of questions and answers.
This is the final (of 8) lessons in this section entitled “Magnetism and Electromagnetism” which is available as a bundle in our shop.
