Electrodynamics Flashcards
State the energy conversion in generators
Use the principle of electromagnetic induction to explain how a generator works.
Explain the functions of the components of an AC and a DC generator.
State examples of the uses of AC and DC generators.
State the energy conversion in motors.
Use the motor effect to explain how a motor works.
Explain the functions of the components of a motor.
State examples of the use of motors.
State the advantages of alternating current over direct current.
The rms potential difference
The AC potential difference, which dissipates/produces
the same amount of energy as an equivalent DC potential difference.
The rms current
The alternating current, which dissipates/produces the same amount
of energy as an equivalent direct current (DC).
