Explain the function of the following parts of an electric motor
Magnetic Effects of Current (10)Explain the function of the following parts of an electric motor.
- Armature
- Brushes
- Split ring
Answer
- Function of armature: Enhances the power of the motor/ induces motion.
- Function of brushes: Helps easy transfer of charge between the coil and the external circuit.
- Function of split rings: Reverses the direction of current after each half rotation of the coil so that the coil can keep rotating continuously.
