The generator effect
The generator effect
The generator effect is the inducing of a potential difference when a conductor moves relative to a magnetic field. A rotating coil experiences this effect because its wires cut through magnetic field lines.
Step-by-step lessons on AQA GCSE Physics 7.3.2 Uses of the generator effect (HT only). Each one builds up to exam-style questions. Build a strong grip on equations, units and Key Stage 3 fundamentals before tackling the more demanding topics like electromagnetism, the particle model of matter and space physics.
