PHY 102 Electromagnetic Induction Objective Question

Question

What is the relationship between the frequency of rotation and the output frequency of an AC generator?
Options
A Output frequency equals rotational frequency
Correct Answer
B Output frequency is twice rotational frequency
C Output frequency is half rotational frequency
D No relationship
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

For a simple loop, one complete rotation produces one complete AC cycle, so the output electrical frequency equals the rotational frequency.

Hint

One rotation = one cycle.
