When I take a step-up transformer say from the igniter coil from an oil burner and step up the voltage from 110 volts to 10,000 volts with just a very small fraction of an amp in the secondary why is it I get a huge spark. Is the spark not a large collection of electrons jumping the gap because...
I never meant to imply that anyone had to tell me anything, In fact I Have nothing but respect and gratitude that all the people that responded to this thread. I realize my question must seem foolish to those individuals that have a firm understanding of physics are able to understand the...
That may be but nobody seems to be able to explain to me in terms that I can understand as to how any opposing torque is generated in the shaft turning the iron plates.
The device would no eliminate any of the back emf and would not the back emf only be created when the magnetic field collapses? And wouldn't it be 180 degrees out of phase with the original emf?
I have what is likely a very stupid question, but here go's.
I was sitting around and got thinking how I might make a better generator. One that doesn't develop opposing torque on the armature when it is under load.
How would the laws of conservation come into play if I were to build a...
