A simple AC generator with a maximum emf of 70.0 V is to be constructed from loops of wire with a radius of 0.14 m, a rotational frequency f = 58.0 Hz, and a magnetic field of 1.04 Ă— 10-1 T. How many loops of wire will be needed?
Added by Michele C.
Step 1
First, we need to find the maximum magnetic flux through each loop of wire. This can be done using the formula: Φmax = πr²B where r is the radius of the loop, B is the magnetic field, and π is the mathematical constant pi. Plugging in the given values, we Show more…

The armature of a simple ac generator has 20 circular loops of wire, each with a radius of $10 \mathrm{~cm} .$ It is rotated with a frequency of $60 \mathrm{~Hz}$ in a uniform magnetic field of $800 \mathrm{mT}$. (a) What is the maximum emf induced in the loops? (b) How often is this value attained? (c) If the time period in part (b) were cut in half, what would be the new maximum emf value?
A single circular loop of wire of radius $r=2.0 \mathrm{cm}$ rotates at a frequency of $60 \mathrm{Hz}$ in a constant magnetic field of magnitude $B=1.5$ T. What is the approximate maximum emf induced in this generator?
