- 3.12 A carbon brush used to conduct current from the commutator of a DC generator has a length of 4 in. It must conduct a current of 400 A with a voltage drop not exceeding 2 V. Determine the cross-sectional area of this carbon brush. 3.13 Early DC machines use brass brushes instead of carbon brushes. The com- mutator bars do not last very long since brass is a rather hard metal. If a brass brush of the dimensions determined in problem 3.12 is used instead to conduct the same current, determine the voltage drop.arrow_forwardI need helpo with this. I need step by step solutions for this and I cant figure it out. Wire to be used in buildings and homes in the United States is standardized according to the AWGsystem (American Wire Gauge). Wires are assigned a gauge number according to their diameter.The scale ranges from gauge 0000 to gauge 36 in 39 steps. The equation for the wire gauge interms of the wire diameter in millimeters is the picture.

By how much do thewire gauges differ for the two wires? (Give your answer to the nearest integer.)arrow_forwardWhat are the primary dimensions of electric voltage (E)? (Hint: Make use of the fact that electric power is equal to voltage times current.) When performing a dimensional analysis, one of the first steps is to list the primary dimensions of each relevant parameter. It is handy to have a table of parameters and their primary dimensions. We have started such a table for you in which we have included some of the basic parameters commonly encountered in fluid mechanics.add to this table. You should be able to build up a table with dozens of parametersarrow_forward

Place a third long wire in parallel with the two wires, at a distance of 5 m from each of the two wires. If we run a steady current of 10 A through the third wire, determine the force per unit length acting on the third wire by the other two wires. Use drawing to present your analysis. Make clear the directions of the currents and the force with these three long and parallel wires.arrow_forwardPlease show the complete solution and figures.
