Q.11 Draw a labeled diagram of an electric motor. Explain its principle and work. What is the function of a split ring in an electric motor?

Ans.

Class 10 Science Electric motor
Class 10 Science Electric motor


Principle – The working of an electric motor is based on the magnetic effect of the electric current. When a rectangular coil is placed in a magnetic field and current is passed through it, the coil feels a force and starts rotating in the magnetic field. so electric energy supplied to the motor is converted into mechanical energy

Working - When current is passed through the coil, the current in the arm AB moves from A to B and in the arm, CD moves from C to D. On applying Fleming’s left-hand rule, a force acting on arm AB pushes it downwards and the force acting on arm CD pushes it upwards. In this way, two equal forces act upon the coil and the coil rotates in the clockwise direction.

At half rotation, the half-ring S1 makes contact with the brush Q and half ring S2  with brush P. So the current in the coil gets reversed. Now the direction of force acting on both half rings gets reversed. The arm AB is pushed upward and arm CD is pushed downward. The reversing of the current is repeated at each half rotation, giving rise to a continuous rotation of the coil.

The function of split rings – Split rings work as commutators and they change the direction of current through the circuit so that the current flow in the circuit in one direction that’s why the direction of force acting on the coil remains the same.


Q.12 Name some devices in which electric motors are used.

Ans. The devices in which electric motors are used:

  Electric fans, mixers, washing machines, refrigerators, computers. MP3 players etc.


Q.13 A coil of insulated copper wire is connected to a galvanometer. What will happen if a bar magnet is

  (i)    Pushed into the coil.

  (ii)   Withdrawn from inside the coil.

(iii)        Held stationary inside the coil?

Ans.  (i). When a bar magnet is pushed into the coil, the magnetic flux related to the coil also changes, and due to this an induced current flows in the coil and the galvanometer will show a momentary deflection

 (ii). When a bar magnet is withdrawn from the coil, the magnetic flux related to the coil changes again and due to this an induced current flows in the coil but in the opposite direction, and the galvanometer will show a momentary deflection in opposite direction.

 (iii). When the magnet is held stationary inside the coil, there is no change (stationary) in magnetic flux related to the coil. So no flow of induced current in the coil and galvanometer shows no deflection.


Q.14 Two circular coils A and B are placed closed to each other. If the current in coil A is changed, will some current be induced in coil B? Give reasons.

Ans. Yes, some current will be inducted in the coil B, because when current is flowing in coil A, it acts as a magnet and when the current in coil A is changed, there will be a change in magnetic field lines related to coil A so magnetic flux related to coil B also changes.


Q.15 State the rule to determine the direction of an (i) magnetic field produced around a straight conductor carrying current, (ii) force experienced by a current-carrying straight conductor placed in a magnetic field that is perpendicular to it, and (iii) current induced in a coil due to its rotation in a magnetic field.

Ans. (a)   Maxwell’s right-hand rule.

        (b)   Fleming’s left-hand rule.

        (c)   Fleming’s right-hand rule.

 

Q.16 Explain the underlying principle and working of an electric generator by drawing a labeled diagram. What is the function of brushes?

Ans. Principle - An electric generator is based on electromagnetic induction. When a coil is rotated in s strong magnetic field, the number of magnetic force lines through the coil changes, and due to this, a current is induced in the coil. The direction of current can be determined by Fleming’s right-hand rule.

     

Class 10 Science electric generator
  ELECTRIC GENERATOR

                   

 Working - When an armature (coil ABCD) rotates in a strong magnetic field NS, it cuts the magnetic field lines and produced a current in the coil and the current begins to flow through the brush B1  to brush B2. The direction of current can be fined by Fleming’s right-hand rule.

In the first half cycle the current flows in one direction from brush B1 to brush B2 but in the second half cycle the direction of current from brush B2 to B1.  This process continues and the direction of current in the coil changes continuously so it is known as alternating current.

The function of brushes- Both the brushes remain in the contact with the ring and provide current in the external circuit.

 

Q.17 When does an electric short circuit occur?

Ans. A short circuit occurs when the live wire comes directly in contact with the neutral wire due to damage to the insulation of wires or overloading.

 

Q.18 What is the function of an earth wire? Why is it necessary to earth metallic appliances?

Ans. The earth wire ensures that if there is any leakage of current to the metallic body of the appliance keeps its potential to that of the earth and the user may not get a severe electric shock and so earth wire is used as a safety wire. 


 

Important point of Magnetic Effect of Electric Current

1.   A compass needle is a small magnet. Its one end which points toward the north is called a north pole and the other end, which points towards the south is called the south pole.


2.   A magnetic field exists in the region surrounding a magnet, in which the force of the magnet can be detected.


3.   Field lines are used to represent a magnetic field. A field line is a path along which a hypothetical free north pole would tend to move. The direction of the magnetic field at a point is given by the direction that a north pole placed at that point would take. Field lines are shown closer together where the magnetic field is greater.


4.   A metallic wire carrying an electric current has associated with it a magnetic field. The field line about the wire consists of a series of concentric circles whose direction is given by the right-hand rule.


5.   The pattern of the magnetic field around due to an electric current flowing through it depends on the shape of the conductor. The magnetic field of a solenoid carrying a current is similar to that pf a bar magnet.


6.   An electromagnet consists of a core of soft iron wrapped around with a coil of insulated copper wire.


7.   A current-carrying conductor when placed in a magnetic field experiences a force, if the direction of the field and that of the current are mutually perpendicular to each other, then the force acting on the conductor will be perpendicular to both and will be given by Fleming’s left-hand rule. This is the basis of an electric motor. An electric motor is a device that converts electric energy into mechanical energy.


8.   The phenomenon of electromagnet induction is the production of induced current in a coil placed in a region where the magnetic field changes with time. The magnetic field may change due to a relative motion between the coil and a magnet placed near to the coil. If the coil is placed near to a current-carrying conductor, the magnetic field may change either due to a change in a change in the current through the conductor or due to the relative motion between the coil and the conductor. The direction of the induced current is given by Fleming’s right-hand rule.


9.   A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. it works on the basis of electromagnetic induction.


10.    In our houses we receive AC electric power of 220 V . one of the wires in this supply is with red insulation, called live wire. The other one is of black insulation which is a neutral wire. The potential difference between the two is 220V. the third is the earth wire that has green insulation and this is connected to a metallic body deep inside the earth. It is used as a safety measure to ensure that any leakage of current to a metallic body does not give any severe shock to a user.


11.    Fuse is the most important safety device, used for protecting the circuits due to short-circuiting or overloading of the circuits.
