What else can I help you with?
What electric current is produced when a spinning shaft rotates magnets inside a generator?
direct current
What is generated in a hydro-electric power plant?
Hydroelectric power plants generate electricity by the action of the "falling" water spinning a turbine which rotates a wire inside a big magnet.
Electric current is produced when a spinning shaft rotates magnets inside a generator?
The process in which electric current is produced when a spinning shaft rotates magnets inside a generator is referred to as 'Direct Current'. It is not expected to work by the normal standard physics model however some people claim it is just.
What does a hydroelectric generator looks like?
Water moves through a pipe and spins a propellor of some kind. This spinning is then connected to a magnet, or a series of magnets which rotate inside stationary coils of copper wire. This generates electricity. So there are two spinning parts, the wet part providing the power, and the dry part generating electricity. The whole thing is usually built inside the bottom of a dam, but smaller ones are installed in river channels.
How do hydroelectric magnets create electricity?
There is no such thing as a hydroelectric magnet, but perhaps you mean how do hydroelectric generators create electricity? Generators work in a way opposite to electric motors. In this generator, a stream of water flows past the vanes of a turbine and causes the turbine to spin. The turbine causes an armature with magnets to rotate. The consequent rotating magnetic field moves past conductive coils of wire surrounding the armature, and as you may know, current is generated when a conductive wire is exposed to a moving magnetic field.
How are magnets used to generate elecricty in a power station?
Yes, you can. You may recall that by running electricity through a coiled wire (solenoid) with an iron bar in the center, we can create an electromagnet. If we reverse this process and put a strong magnet through a solenoid, we can generate electricity. All you will have to do is move the magnet up and down in order to generate electricity.
How does the hydroelectric generating system work?
Take for example, a dam. Water flows through the gates (when opened) of the dam and turn turbines. Inside these turbines are coils of copper usually that generate electricity.
How do hydroelectric power stations generate electricity?
Water is stored at a height behind the dam. It is then allowed to fall through special channels in the dam, gathering speed as it goes (the potential energy being turned into kinetic). Near the bottom it goes through several turbines, which turn large magnets inside coils of wire (turning the kinetic energy into electrical) and the water is then allowed to continue its flow through the river.
What kind of power is made using wind?
Electrical power is generated by the wind. The wind turns turbines, the motion of which rotates wires inside magnets resulting in electrical current. This is very similar to the way hydroelectric turbines operate, in principle.
How is a electrical energy produced at power plants?
There are many different types of power plant but they all produce electricity the same way: by spinning huge magnets around an iron core inside a device called a turbine.
Can spinning a can prevent it from exploding?
Spinning a can can help prevent it from exploding by evenly distributing the pressure inside the can.
What are discovered magnets?
they are the cwatam physics inside a eclectron
