The teacher considered it an opportunity to explain the working to the whole class.
Answer the following questions:
(a) State the principle and working of a dynamo.
(b) Write two values each displayed by Ram and his school teacher.
Dynamo:
a) Principle: Whenever a coil is rotated in a magnetic field, an emf is induced in it due to change in magnetic flux linked with the coil.
Working:
As the coil in the dynamo rotates, its inclination (
) with respect to the field changes. Therefore, a varying emf is obtained which is given by,
b) Values displayed by:
Ram: curiosity, scientific aptitude, keenness to learn.
Teacher: Depth of knowledge, motivational approach, generous, dedicated.
