Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

Power plants and AC generators are some of the sources that produce alternating current.

Q4Multiple choice

Choose the correct option.

A rectangular coil of copper wires is rotated in a magnetic field. The direction of the induced current changes once in each

Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

c. half revolution

When a rectangular coil is rotated in a magnetic field, the direction of the induced current changes once in a half revolution; as a result, the direction of the current in the coil remains the same.
