Marking-scheme solution
(i)
Inductance
Capacitance
$\displaystyle \nu_{0}=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{L C}}$
Working – when an alternating voltage is applied to the primary, the resulting current produces an alternating magnetic flux which links the secondary and induces an emf in it.
(iii)
Causes of energy loss (any two):
(1)
Flux leakage
(2)
Resistance of the windings
(3)
Hysteresis
(4)
Eddy currents
(b)
Construction – It consists of a coil placed in a magnetic field. The coil is mounted on a rotor shaft. The ends of the coil are connected to an external circuit by means of slip rings and brushes.
Working – The coil is rotated in the uniform magnetic field by some external means. The rotation of the coil causes the magnetic flux through it to change, so an emf is induced in the coil.
(ii)
The equivalent current:
$\displaystyle I=\frac{q}{t}=\frac{e}{\dfrac{2 \pi r}{v}}=\frac{e v}{2 \pi r}$
Magnetic moment of revolving electron:
$\displaystyle m=I A$
$\displaystyle =\frac{e v}{2 \pi r} \times \pi r^{2}$
$\displaystyle =\frac{1}{2} e v r$
