Question 1 • Physics in the Universe

Which change can make a generator stronger?

Answer
A
decreasing the size of the slip rings
B
increasing the size of the slip rings
C
decreasing the number of coils in the armature
D
increasing the number of coils in the armature

Explanation

A generator produces a stronger voltage when the magnetic flux through its coils changes more, and adding coils increases the induced voltage. Therefore, increasing the number of coils in the armature can make the generator stronger. Changing the size of the slip rings does not increase the voltage they generate.
