Calculate Average Velocity: Help with 10 Secs Project

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the average velocity of a conductor in a single loop generator, it's essential to understand that average velocity requires a time interval for measurement. The project involves a loop with a length of 40mm and a diameter of 20mm, rotating at 50 revolutions per second, but asking for average velocity at a single moment is conceptually flawed. The average velocity can only be determined over a specific time period, not at an isolated point in time. Therefore, the question needs to be reframed to reflect a time interval for accurate calculation. Understanding this distinction is crucial for completing the project correctly.

Hi

I am trying to work this out, but i just cannot find anything on how to work it out, I need to create this for a project and need to calculate itQuestion
A Simple single loop generator, the loop has a length of 40mm and diameter 20mm. The flux density is 0.8 Tesla and the loop rotates at 50 rev/ second.

1. Calculate the average velocity of the conductor at 10 seconds.

Please could someone help with this questions

Thanks

If you look at the definition of average velocity, you'll see why your question doesn't make sense.
 
Can you not calculate the average velocity of a conductor in a single loop generator?
 
An average can only be taken over an interval. You're asking for the average velocity at a single point in time.
