Q

what does the split-ring commutator do in a motor?

A

reverses the direction of the current in the coil every half-turn so that the motor will keep on spinning in the right direction

Q

define electromagnetic induction

A

a potential difference is induced in a wire or coil when it cuts through magnetic field lines

17
Q

how can you change the size of the induced potential difference when using electromagnetic induction?

A

-faster motion
-stronger magnetic field
-more turns in the coil
