QUESTION 1
What is the use of slip ring? Explain the function of slip rings in the ac generator?

(3 marks)

QUESTION 2
In a large ac generator, it is more practical to fix the armature windings and rotate
the magnetic field. Draw the generated voltage for the large ac generator based
on the magnet positions.

The drawing must be hand-drawn and must be detailed using several different
colored pens/pencils.

Snap the answer (in picture) and paste it here. (8

marks)

QUESTION 3
Explain the output voltage of ac generator in terms of the magnetic field and
current supply.
(3 marks)

QUESTION 4
(a) For a 6 pole 50hz generator. What is the speed in rpm of the rotor?

(b) What would be the frequency of 4 pole machine spinning at the same speed?

Answer must be handwritten. Snap the picture and paste here (4

marks)

QUESTION 5
What is the meaning of armature? Explain briefly the use of armature in an
induction generator. (4
marks)

3. Amplitudo keluaran tegangan merupakan fungsi dari arus yang disuplai ke

gulungan medan magnet. Semakin besar arusnya, semakin besar medan
magnetnya, dan semakin besar tegangan keluarannya.

5. Armatur merupakan kawat yang bisa bergerak memutar sepanjang medan magnet.
Kawat angker berfungsi untuk membangkitkan arus listrik pada rangkaian listrik di luar
generator.
