a) Explain the principle of an electric generator. b) State two ways in which the current induced in the coil of a generator could be increased.

Answer:

a) An electric generator works by moving a straight conductor in a magnetic field, causing current to flow.

b) Current is induced in a generator’s coil in the following ways:

i)  Faster coil rotation

ii) Using a bigger coil
