Which best contrasts an electric generator and an electric motor?

An electrical generator and motor are two machines that operate oppositely.

An electrical generator uses mechanical energy, converting it to produce electrical energy. This mechanical energy is provided in most cases from a spinning/rotating action in which a wire or loop of wire spins in a magnetic field. This causes the wire to move sharply through the magnetic field, causing current to flow, and in turn, creating electricity.

An electrical motor does the opposite, but uses the same principles, converting electrical energy to produce mechanical energy. The motor will have an alternating current (AC) moving through pairs of magnets, producing a rotating magnetic field. This causes the motor's central rotor to spin, powering whatever machinery it is hooked up to.

a solenoid is created by wrapping a l = 90 m long wire around a hollow tube of diameter d = 4.5 cm.   the wire diameter is d = 0.9 mm.   the solenoid wire is then connected to a power supply so that a current of i = 9 a flows through the wire.

randomized variablesl = 90 m

d = 4.5 cm

d = 0.9 mm

i = 9 a                                          

write an expression for the number of turns, n, in the solenoid. you do not need to take into account the diameter of the wire in this calculation.

calculate the number of turns, n, in the solenoid.

write an expression for the length of the solenoid (l2) in terms of the diameter of the hollow tube d.

calculate the length of the solenoid (l2)   in meters.

calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid in teslas.

explanation:

1.   what is light?

light is an electromagnetic wave visible to the human eye. 

2. what is a reflection?

the rebounding of a light ray when it hits a mirror.

3. what is the incident ray?

contacts the surface of an object.

4. what is the reflected ray?

bounces off a reflective surface.

5. what is the normal ray?

perpendicular to the surface of a mirror.

6. what is the angle of incidence?

an angle formed by the incident ray and the normal.

7. what is the angle of reflection?

an angle formed by the reflected ray and the normal.

8. what is refraction?

(bending.)

9. what is a converging lens?

bring together light rays that pass through.

10. what is a diverging lens?

spreads out light passing through.

11. focal point?

the real point where the refracted rays meet when the incident rays run parallel.
