Electric charges are
deflected by magnetic fields
provided they are not
travelling parallel to the field
lines.
Positive and negative
charges are deflected in
opposite directions.
The motor effect
When a current carrying
conductor carrying an
electric current is placed
in a magnetic field, it will
experience a force
provided that the
conductor is not placed
parallel to the field lines.
This is called the motor
effect.

The force increases if:
– the strength of the magnetic field is increased
– the current is increased
The direction of the force is reversed if either
the direction of the current or the direction of
the magnetic field is reversed.

The electric motor
Electric current flowing around the
coil of the electric motor produces
oppositely directed forces on each
side of the coil.
These forces cause the coil to
rotate.
Every half revolution the split ring
commutator causes the current in
the coil to reverse otherwise the
coil would stop in the vertical
position.

The loudspeaker
The sound signal consists of an
alternating current supplied by the
amplifier.
This current flows through the coil of
the loudspeaker.
Due to the motor effect, the magnetic
field around the coil causes the coil to
vibrate in step with the alternating
current.
The coil causes the diaphragm
(speaker cone) to vibrate in step with
the original sound signal.
The diaphragm causes air to vibrate
and so produces a sound wave.

Electromagnetic induction
If an electrical conductor cuts
through magnetic field lines, a
voltage is induced across the
ends of the conductor.
If the wire is part of a complete
circuit, a current is induced in
the wire.
This is called electromagnetic
induction and is sometimes
called the generator effect.
Generator - Fendt
If a magnet is moved into a
coil of wire, a voltage is
induced across the ends of
the coil.
If the direction of motion, or
the polarity of the magnet, is
reversed, then the direction of
the induced voltage and the
induced current are also
reversed.
Electromagnetic induction
also occurs if the magnetic
field is stationary and the coil
is moved.
Generator - Fendt
The size of the induced voltage increases
when:
–
–
–
–
the speed of the movement increases
the strength of the magnetic field increases
the number of turns on the coil increases
the area of the coil is greater.

Alternating Current Generators
Most electricity is produced using the ‘generator
effect’.
The simplest generators and the types used in
power stations produce alternating current (A.C.)
Generator - Fendt
Moving Coil A.C. Generator
Generator - Fendt
Generator - Fendt
This like an electric motor in reverse.
As the coil is rotated electromagnetic induction occurs.
An alternating voltage is induced in the coil.
An alternating current is drawn off through two slip rings.
The faster the coil is rotated:
- the greater is the amplitude of the voltage and current
- the higher is the frequency of the a.c.
Generator - Fendt
Bicycle generator
When the wheel turns the
magnet is made to rotate
next to the fixed coil of wire.
Electromagnetic induction
occurs and a alternating
voltage is induced in the
coil.
This causes an alternating
current to flow to the light
bulb of the bicycle.
Generator - Fendt

wrapped around a laminated iron core.

Transformer - eChalk
How a transformer works
When an alternating voltage, Vp is applied to the
primary coil of Np turns it causes an alternating to
flow in this coil.
This current causes a changing magnetic field in
the laminated iron core which cuts across the
secondary coil of Ns turns.
Electromagnetic induction occurs in this coil which
produces an alternating voltage, Vs.
Transformer - eChalk
Question
Why can a transformer not change the level of the
voltage output of a battery?
– A battery produces a steady (DC) voltage.
– This voltage would cause a constant direct current in
the primary coil of a transformer.
– This current would produce an unchanging magnetic
field in the iron core.
– This unchanging magnetic field would NOT cause
electromagnetic induction in the secondary coil.
– There would therefore be no secondary voltage.
The transformer equation
The voltages or potential differences across the
primary and secondary coils of a transformer are
related by the equation:

Transformer power transfer equation
If a transformer is 100% efficient then the power
input to the primary coil is equalled by the power
output from the secondary coil.
as power = current x voltage
then:
Ip x Vp = Is x Vs
Question 1
Calculate the primary current if when a transformer is
supplied with 230V the secondary provides 4A at a voltage
of 13V. Assume that the transformer is 100% efficient.
Ip x Vp = Is x Vs
Ip x 230V = 4A x 13V
Ip = 52 / 230
Primary current = 0.226 A
Question 2
Calculate the secondary current from a transformer
supplying a secondary voltage of 6V if the primary is
supplied with a current of 0.20A at 230V. Assume that the
transformer is 100% efficient.
Ip x Vp = Is x Vs
0.2A x 230V = Is x 6V
Is = 46 / 6
Secondary current = 7.67 A

Step-up transformers
In a step-up transformer the
voltage across the secondary coil
is greater than the voltage across
the primary coil.
The secondary turns must be
greater than the primary turns.
Use: To increase the voltage
output from a power station from
25 kV (25 000 V) to up to 400 kV.
Transformer - eChalk
Step-down transformers
In a step-down transformer the voltage
across the secondary coil is smaller
than the voltage across the primary coil.
The secondary turns must be smaller
than the primary turns.
Use: To decrease the voltage output
from the mains supply from 230V to 18V
to power and recharge a lap-top
computer.

Transformers and the National Grid
The National Grid is the system of cables used to
deliver electrical power from power stations to
consumers.
The higher the voltage used, the greater is the
efficiency of energy transmission.
Lower voltages result in higher electric currents
and greater energy loss to heat due to the
resistance of the cables.
At power stations the output voltage of the generators is
stepped up by transformers from 25kV to 132kV.
The voltage may be further increased to up to 400 kV for
transmission over long distance pylon lines.
The voltage is reduced in stages by step-down
transformers to different levels for different types of
consumer.
The lowest level is 230V for domestic use. The final stepdown transformer will be at sub station within a few
hundred metres of each group of houses.
Question 1
Why is electrical energy transmitted over the
National Grid in the form of alternating current?
–

–
To maximise efficiency high voltages must be used.
Voltage therefore needs to be changed in level.
Transformers are needed to change voltage levels.
Transformers only work with alternating current.
