Considering the above diagram, I am failing to see why the aluminium ring floats upwards rather than oscillates. I understand Faraday's law, but I am struggling with Lenz's law - as there is an alternating current, an alternating magnetic field is produced, similar to a sine wave. Therefore, I...

Homework Statement Prove that (n2+3)(n2+15) is divisible by 32 for all odd positive integers n. Homework Equations I suppose we are supposed to use mathematical induction since it is in that chapter, but the following questions specifically state that we should use induction but this question...

Hi everyone, I am facing some problems in performing clarke-park transform for an induction motor(4 pole stator, squirrel cage IM). The motor is run with three sine wave inputs, 120 degrees phase shifted with each other. I am measuring the rotor position from the encoder and using twice of...

when A current-carrying conductor is placed in A magnetic field due to the interference of both magnetic fields,the field is made variable so a force will be induced on the Conductor. so my question is, If an Ac current is passed through conductor it will have variable magnetic field will it...

Prove that for fixed s > 0, we have lim e^-sN ( s sin bN + b cos bN ) = 0 N -> This problem was in a chapter on Laplace Transforms. I'm assuming this will require proof by induction.

I seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the principle here. in the previous part it was required to sketch the graph for the hall probe. I knew since the speed was constant the field was cut at a constant rate hence a straight line was needed. However I did not understand why it...

Say for you had a wire in a complete circuit inside a magnetic field (pointing inwards) perpendicular to the wire. You move the wire across (to the right) , cutting lines of flux, this induces a current in the wire. The induced current acts upwards using the dynamo rule (thumb is motion...

In an induction motor problem , I need to find the full load current & torque..for that I calculated the impedance with given data..& I got the impedance in polar form..But in the solution for finding the full load current they put only the magnitude of the impedance & not the phase..! I didn't...

It is said that crawling occurs mainly due to 7th harmonic component. Due to 7th harmonic the speed decreases by the ratio of 7. However speed is directly proportional to frequency. So speed should get multiplied by a factor of 7 instead. Should the change in frequency affect the number of poles...

I've been trying out induction cooking on a small one-burner unit, with a large cast iron pan. I'm getting the expected hot spot in the center of the pan, and a serious temperature falloff toward the sides. No surprise there - the induction element is about 7" (I dismantled the unit to check)...

Hi, If the voltage, full load current and full load output power (kW) of a 3 phase induction motor are known, and the efficiency is assumed to be 90% (is this realistic), am I correct in thinking that the full load power factor can be approximated (due to assumed and not actual efficiency) as...

So if you have a single inductor then I assume that there is no flux linkage and that L = flux*N / i = L11 and so that flux is total leakage flux. If you have two inductors then the flux leakage is any flux that isn't flux linkage (the self flux is flux leakage). (flux21 is the flux in 2 from...
