What is the use of magnets? Why do we see light on the magnet?
Uses of magnetsApplications in electrical equipment Generator: In a generator, the magnet is the key component that generates the magnetic field. For example, in a synchronous generator, the magnet on the rotor (which can be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet) rotates, causing the stator winding to cut the magnetic force line, which generates an induced electromotive force according to the principle of electromagnetic induction, and then converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

What is meant by the voltage of a system, and how does voltage flow through a current?
Meaning of system voltageDefinitionSystem voltage is the potential difference between specific points in an electrical system (such as a power supply system, an electronic circuit system, etc.). In power systems, it usually refers to the voltage between a certain phase or line in the grid. For example, in a three-phase four-wire low-voltage distribution system, the phase voltage (the voltage between the live line and the neutral line) is 220V, and the line voltage (the voltage between the live l

Why not use superconductors as transformer winding materials to achieve zero loss?
Superconductors, as a material that can theoretically achieve zero-resistance transmission, do have great potential, especially in the field of power transmission, to significantly reduce energy loss. However, the application of superconductors to transformer winding materials is not a simple solution due to the technical, economic and practical complexities involved. Here are a few key factors: Critical temperature limit: Superconductors need to operate at certain low temperatures to exhibit su

What is the reason for refrigerators not having a fuse or circuit breaker?
In fact, most refrigerators have overload protection devices, which may be fuses, circuit breakers or circuit protection elements with similar functions, but some refrigerators do not appear to have independent visible fuses or circuit breakers, mainly for the following reasons:Built-in protection elementIntegration with compressorThe main power-consuming part of the refrigerator is the compressor, and many refrigerators integrate protection elements into the compressor's starting and running ci

Is there a correlation between voltage and power output in PV cells? If so, how does increasing voltage affect power output?
Yes, there is a correlation between voltage and power output in photovoltaic (PV) cells. The relationship between voltage, current, and power output can be understood through the basic electrical formula:P=V⋅Iwhere: P is the power, V is the voltage, I is the current.In the context of PV cells, both voltage (V) and current (I) contribute to the power output (P).However, the relationship isn't linear due to the nature of how solar cells operate and their characteristic curves.How Increasing Voltag

Can you explain the difference between an oscillating electric field and an oscillating magnetic field?
Oscillating Electric Field (Oscillating Electric Field) and oscillating Magnetic field (Oscillating magnetic field) are important components of electromagnetic wave, and they are interrelated and interdependent in the propagation process of electromagnetic wave. The following details the difference between oscillating electric and oscillating magnetic fields and their interactions:Oscillating Electric FieldDefinition: An oscillating electric field is an electric field that varies periodically wi

Can the electric and magnetic fields both be zero at the same time in uniform electromagnetic waves?
In a uniform electromagnetic wave, the Electric Field (E) and the Magnetic Field (B) cannot be zero at the same time. This is because the nature of electromagnetic waves is that electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and change alternately in space, thus propagating in a vacuum or medium. Here is a detailed explanation of the phenomenon:Definition of electromagnetic waveElectromagnetic wave is a wave phenomenon formed by oscillating electric and magnetic fields perpendicula

Is light is matter?
Whether light is matter is a classical physics question, and the answer depends on how we define "matter." In physics, "matter" usually refers to an entity that occupies a certain space and has mass. However, light, as an electromagnetic wave, has some unique properties that make it different from matter in the traditional sense. Here is a detailed discussion of the nature of light:Wave-particle duality of light Volatility: Light exhibits volatility and is capable of interference and diffraction

What is the relationship between electromagnetic force and electricity and magnetism?
The Electromagnetic Force (EMF) is one of the four fundamental forces in physics that unify the Electric Interaction between charges and the Magnetic Interaction between magnetic charges. The electromagnetic force is essentially the result of the interaction between the Electric Field and the Magnetic Field. The following is a detailed explanation of the electromagnetic force and its relationship to electricity and magnetism:The interaction between electric charges Electric field: When an electr

What are the reasons for high earthing systems only?
High ground systems (usually referred to as high resistance ground systems) are used mainly for the following reasons:Limit ground fault currentReduce the risk of equipment damageIn high-resistance grounding systems, the ground fault current is limited to a relatively low level. When a ground fault occurs, a smaller fault current flows through the ground path. This low level of fault current has less impact on the thermal stress and electrodynamics of electrical equipment (such as transformers,
