Exercises - Form IV - ELECTROMAGNETISM - ACTIVITY 3

ACTIVITY 3
1.      A moving coil galvanometer has coil resistance 20Ω and can carry a maximum of 15 mA.
a)      What is the value of the shunt required to enable the galvanometer register 10 A full-scale deflection? How will the shunt be connected?
b)      What is the value of the multiplier required to enable the galvanometer register 10 V full-scale deflection? How will the multiplier be connected?
2.      What happens if a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field?
3.      When does a current carrying conductor experience a maximum force in the magnetic field?
4.      What is the use of a commutator in an electric motor?

5.      Describe the structure and mode of action of a simple d.c motor.
