Card 1Basic Concepts

What is electromagnetic induction?

Answer

The phenomenon of inducing an emf (electromotive force) across a conductor due to a change in the magnetic flux linked with the conductor. Discovered by Michael Faraday, it shows that electricity can

Card 2Basic Concepts

Under what conditions does electromagnetic induction occur?

Answer

Electromagnetic induction occurs when there is relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field, or when the magnetic flux linked with a closed circuit changes. The conductor and magnet must b

Card 3Basic Concepts

List three ways to increase the induced emf and current in electromagnetic induction.

Answer

1. Increase the number of turns per unit length in the coil 2. Use a stronger magnet (increase magnetic field strength) 3. Increase the speed of relative motion between the conductor and magnet

Card 4Types of Current

What is the difference between AC and DC current?

Answer

DC (Direct Current): Current that flows only in one direction, like current from a battery. AC (Alternating Current): Current that continuously changes direction at regular intervals of time, like cur

Card 5Generators

What is a generator and what energy transformation occurs in it?

Answer

A generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Energy transformation: Mechanical energy → Electrical energy. When w

Card 6Generators

What are the main parts of an AC generator?

Answer

1. Field magnet (NS) - provides magnetic field 2. Armature coil (ABCD) - rotates in the magnetic field 3. Slip rings (B₁, B₂) - maintain electrical contact 4. Brushes (R₁, R₂) - transfer current to ex

Card 7Generators

What is the key difference between AC and DC generators in terms of construction?

Answer

AC Generator: Uses slip rings and brushes to transfer the induced AC current to the external circuit. DC Generator: Uses split rings (commutator) and brushes. The split rings reverse the connections e

Card 8Power Generation

Name the three main types of power stations and their energy sources.

Answer

1. Thermal Power Station - Uses fuels like coal, CNG to generate steam (about 75% of India's electricity) 2. Nuclear Power Station - Uses nuclear energy to convert water into steam 3. Hydroelectric Po
