A
a permanent magnet
B
an electromagnet
C
an armature
D
a battery
E
brushes
F
slip rings
4

Which component is found only in electric generators and not in electric motors?

A
an armature
B
brushes
C

5

How does an electric generator work?

A
The armature rotates the axle in the magnetic field of a permanent magnet, which induces an electric current.
B
The axle rotates the armature in the magnetic field of a permanent magnet, which induces an electric current.
C
The axle rotates the armature in the magnetic field of an electromagnet, which induces an electric current.
D
The armature rotates the axle in the magnetic field of an electromagnet, which induces an electric current.
6

Which best describes the steps involved in the operation of an electric generator?

A
The electric current passes from the brushes, through the slip rings, and to the collection device.
B
The electric current passes from the commutator, through the brushes, and into the power source.
C
The electric current passes from the slip rings, through the brushes, and to the collection device.
D
The electric current passes from the power source, through the brushes, and into the commutator.
7

Which component is found only in electric generators and not in electric motors?

A
slip rings
B
brushes
C
a commutator
D
an armature
8

The voltage across the primary winding is 6000 V. If the primary winding has 50 coils and the secondary winding has 20 coils, what is the secondary voltage?

A
120 V
B
15,000 V
C
120,000 V
D
2400 V
9

Which is an important step in how an electric motor uses magnetic force to produce motion?

A
As the north pole of the electromagnet nears the north pole of the permanent magnet, the current reverses and the poles of the magnets then repel.
B
As the north pole of the electromagnet nears the south pole of the permanent magnet, the current reverses and the poles of the magnets then attract.
C
As the north pole of the electromagnet nears the north pole of the permanent magnet, the current reverses and the poles of the magnets then attract.
D
As the north pole of the electromagnet nears the south pole of the permanent magnet, the current reverses and the poles of the magnets then repel.
10
