Q2 of 7 Page 70

Using the information given in the brackets, complete the flow chart. (rotor, coil wound over the soft iron core, electromagnet, stator)


A power generator consists of two parts:


1) Field magnet


2) Armature


Field Magnet: It is a static part of a generator which is made up of an electromagnet or a permanent magnet used to produce magnetic field that interacts with the armature of the generator.


Armature: Armature is the rotating part of an electrical generator which is wound by many coils used to carry current(produced due to interactions with the magnetic field of the field magnet) and allows the flow of induced emf.
