hahaha thanks!!!!!!!! U're a life saver. Just 1 final thing, this explains why a capacitor won't charge with AC cause it will prevent accumulation of charges right?? Meaning it will charge and discharge??? And to produce an induced EMF, is it necessary to use an alternating field (the one provided by AC)?? Since DC will not produce an alternating field and no induced EMF right????
my txt bk says dat capacitor will nt wrk wid dc n will wrk wid ac

See its a metal ball .. it doesnt hav a pole until another magnet 'sticks' to it .. S or N .. doesnt matter for the ball
Thanks 4 the effort .. I get it Now (:
Know how to ask. There is nothing more difficult for some people, nor for others, easier.

can some one tell me what is the purpose of the core in a transformer?

Question, can anyone solve and scan ,
or at least explain how to do it, (dont worry i'll understand)

the resultant of these 2 forces is actually the weight of the box or wht ever being lifted

It is there to prevent leaking of the alternating field which will produce a strong induced EMF, without it, not all of the alternating field (which should induce an alternating EMF) will reach the other wire so a weaker EMF will be induced.

Correct right??? Please correct me if I'm wrong....

the voltage induces in the core itself .. without it the transformer wouldnt work ..

The core is mainly made of iron, A CONDUCTOR, and so, serves as the purpose of CONDUCTING or TRANSFERRING the current from the primary coil to the secondary. It helps with the electromagnetic induction. As a conductor, to allow and speed up the transfer of current process, and it itself is induced.

The core is also made of pieces which are joint via lamination, and not just one whole piece, to avoid building up of eddy current.

my teacher said the current is directly induced in the 2ndry coil with out the help of the core

ok u said "a capacitor won't charge with AC cause it will prevent accumulation of charges right??" PERFECT!

 " Meaning it will charge and discharge"  i dont think it will charge on the first place because the to and fro is so fast tht the capacitor wont be able to have enough time to get charged .. ;)

" And to produce an induced EMF, is it necessary to use an alternating field (the one provided by AC)?? Since DC will not produce an alternating field and no induced EMF right????"   yup this is right .. do you know WHY ac is needed for induced pd ??

THanks!!! Ummm since only AC can produce an alternating magnetic field only that can produce an induced EMF?? Lenz's law says that the direction of the induced EMF should be to oppose the change causing it so the field by DC will not induce an EMF since it won't oppose the change causing it?? HAHAHAHAHAHAH LOL. I don't know :D.
