Chapter 21, Problem 23P
A simple generator has a square armature 6.0 cm on a side. The armature has 85 turns of 0.59-mm-diameter copper wire and rotates in a 0.65-T magnetic field. The generator is used to power a lightbulb rated at 12.0V and 25.0 W. At what rate should the generator rotate to provide 12.0 V to the bulb? Consider the resistance of the wire on the armature.

Suppose that the light bulb in Figure 22.4b is a 60.0-W bulb with a resistance of 287 Ω. The magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.785 T, and the length of the rod is 1.02 m. The only resistance in the circuit is that due to the bulb. What is the shortest distance along the rails that the rod would have to slide for the bulb to remain lit for one-half second?
