  • Alternating Current (AC)

    What can an alternator produce
  • Direct Current (DC)

    What does an generator produce
  • In a magnetic field, it cuts the flux between magnets, varying with position.
    What happens when the loop rotates around
  • Measured in degrees or time
    How can sine waves be measured
  • By connecting a capacitor in parallel with the output from the bridge rectifier
    How is smoothing DC achieved
  • RMS = peak value x 0.707
    How to calculate RMS of a sine wave
  • Peak value = RMS/0.707or RMS value x √2 (1.41)

    How to find Peak value
  • Average value sine wave = peak value x 0.637
    How to find average value sine wave
  • Peak value = average value/0.637

    How to find peak value
  • T=1/F
    How to fin periodic time
  • F=1/T
    How to find frequency
