Explain the principle and working of an electric motor with the help of a diagram. What is
the function of a split ring commutator?
Answers
Answer:
A motor is a device which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Principle of motor : A motor works on the principle that when a rectangular coil is placed in a magnetic field and current is passed through it. A force acts on the coil which rotates it continuously.
The split ring has the function of reversing the current at that point. When a dc motor shaft comes into contact with a split ring, the split ring reverses the current to maintain the shaft torque in a magnetic field.
Answer:
hi mate
Explanation:
The principle of the electric motor is based on the fact that a current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field around it. A current carrying conductor placed perpendicular to magnetic field experiences a force.
The split ring in the electric motor also known as a commutator reverses the direction of current flowing through the coil after every half rotation of the coil. Due to this the coil continues to rotate in the same direction.
