Electromagnetic Effects (continued)
Aperçu
Send a current through a wire that sits in a magnetic field and the wire is pushed sideways. Wind that wire into a coil and the push becomes a spin: this is how every electric motor turns. Pair two coils on an iron core and a changing current in one induces a voltage in the other, which is how transformers raise and lower the voltages that power the world.
In this lesson you will describe the force on a current-carrying conductor and how reversing the current or field reverses it, find force directions and deflect charged particles, explain the turning effect on a coil and the d.c. motor with its commutator, and work through transformers from construction to the turns equation, the efficiency equation, and why high-voltage transmission cuts the power lost as \(I^2R\) heating in cables.
Objectifs
- Describe an experiment to show that a force acts on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field, including the effect of reversing: (a) the current (b) the direction of the field
- Know that a current-carrying coil in a magnetic field may experience a turning effect and that the turning effect is increased by increasing: (a) the number of turns on the coil (b) the current (c) the strength of the magnetic field
- Describe the construction of a simple transformer with a soft-iron core, as used for voltage transformations
- Use the terms primary, secondary, step-up and step-down
- Recall and use the equation Vₚ / Vₛ = Nₚ / Nₛ where p and s refer to primary and secondary
- Describe the use of transformers in high- voltage transmission of electricity
- State the advantages of high-voltage transmission
- [Supplement] Recall and use the relative directions of force, magnetic field and current
- [Supplement] Determine the direction of the force on beams of charged particles in a magnetic field
- [Supplement] Describe the operation of an electric motor, including the action of a split-ring commutator and brushes
- [Supplement] Explain the principle of operation of a simple iron-cored transformer
- [Supplement] Recall and use the equation for 100% efficiency in a transformer I V = I V p p s s where p and s refer to primary and secondary
- [Supplement] Recall and use the equation P = I2R to explain why power losses in cables are smaller when the voltage is greater
