A radial magnetic field ensures that the plane of the coil (rotating within the magnetic field, in say a DC motor) is always flat within the external magnetic field ensuring maximum torque in (nearly) all positions.

Hope this helps!

What is meant by pole slipping?

A pole slip occurs when a motor or generator cannot maintain synchronicity. This occurs because the field excitation is too low.


What is meant b generator?

A generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through the process of electromagnetic induction. It typically consists of a rotor, which spins within a magnetic field, inducing an electric current in coils of wire. Generators are commonly used in power plants, portable power supplies, and various applications where electricity is needed. They can be powered by various energy sources, including fossil fuels, wind, water, or solar energy.


What is meant by flashing a field in excitation?

A generator needs to have residual magnetism in its field coils to start the generation of electricity. A generator that has not been run in a long time will loose this magnetism. Because the field voltage is a DC supply, a battery across the field wiring will energize the coils instantaneously. Doing this several times will cause sparking when the contact to the battery is broken, hence the flash. This intermittent energizing and de-energizing will bring the residual magnetism back into the field coils. When the generator is started, the voltage output should rise to its normal level. If it does the magnetizing of the field coils to bring back the residual magnetism will have worked.

Which direction does magnetic fields flow?

I think it is a mistake to refer to magnetic field 'flowing. Magnetic fields just are, they can change, and these disturbances might move in space, but the field itself does not flow. That being said, and assuming you meant to ask in which direction a magnetic field points the answer is that a magnetic field points towards the south pole of a magnet and away from the north pole. A magnetic field cannot be divergent (i.e. there are no sources) and any field line must be closed.


What is meant by cyclotron frequency?

Cyclotron frequency refers to the frequency at which a charged particle orbits in a magnetic field. It is determined by the strength of the magnetic field and the mass and charge of the particle. The cyclotron frequency is an important parameter in understanding the behavior of charged particles in magnetic fields, such as in particle accelerators.


What is meant by diamagnetic shielding?

Diamagnetic shielding refers to the ability of a material to create a magnetic field in the opposite direction to an external magnetic field, thus reducing the overall magnetic field within the material. This shielding effect helps protect sensitive equipment or materials from the influence of external magnetic fields. Materials with diamagnetic properties include superconductors and some metals like bismuth and copper.


What is meant by Slip of an induction motor?

Slip is referred to as the difference between the speed of the rotor and the speed of the rotating magnetic field in the stator of the induction motor. Speed of the rotor=n(1-s) Speed of the rotating magnetic field= f/p


What is meant by electric and magnetic field?

A magnetic field is a area in which magnetic objects are pushed or pulled. It is caused by the alignment of parts of atoms.A field of force associated with changing electric fields , as when electric charges are in motion. Magnetic fields exert deflective forces on moving electric charges. Most magnets have magnetic fields as a result of the spinning motion of the electrons orbiting the atoms of which they are composed; electromagnets create such fields from electric current moving through coils. Large objects, such as the earth, other planets, and stars, also produce magnetic fields. See Note at magnetism.


Are electromagnetic waves characterized by rarefactions and compressions?

No they are caused by changes in magnetic and electrical fields. When a magnetic field changes it causes an electric field that is perpendicular to it. And vice versa a changing electric field causes a perpendicular magnetic field. These changing fields propagate outwards at the speed of light and are what is meant by an electromagnetic wave.


How will calculate the power of magnet?

The electric power is measured the same as in any other electric circuit, in watts. You calculate this by multiplying the current (in amps) by the potential difference (in volts) across the circuit. So: P = I V If you meant how do we measure the strength of the magnetic field generated, there are two different vector fields that may be called "magnetic field". These are the H-field and the B-field. The H-field may also be called the "magnetic field intensity", the "magnetic field strength", the "auxiliary magnetic field" or the "magnetising field". It is measured in amps per metre. The B-field may also be called the "magnetic flux density", the "magnetic induction", or the "magnetic field". It is measured in teslas.
