Question 9 • TX-Physics B

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 more voltage when its armature has more coils, because more wire turns experience the changing magnetic field. Increasing the number of coils therefore makes the generator stronger. The slip rings transfer the generated current and changing their size does not increase the generated voltage.
