Flemmings right-hand rule confusion: There are two Flemmings hand rule. The left-hand rule and right-hand rule. The left-hand rule is used when an already current carrying wire in a magnetic field experiences a force. This is the case in motors. We pass current through the coil and the force due to field pushes and turns the coil. However in generators, we turn the coil and as a result, electric current is produced. To figure out the direction of this current, we use the right-hand rule. Hopefully, this clears the confusion of why we use left-hand rule for Motors and right-hand rule for generators.
Appreciate video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I am interested in your opinion. Have you ever tried - Elijahzan Ailment Solution Review (just google it)? It is a great one of a kind product for saving money with your own electricity supply minus the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my close friend Aubrey at last got excellent success with it.
@Science done right Imagine being Faraday, pacing, staying up all night, scribbling notes on a pad kept on the night stand... 'almost got it, almost, it's right there!'
Thank you so much khan academy ,for removing all the doubts of the students like us who face difficulty in understanding electric generator and motor. The animation were so perfect we didn't even get confused for were the current is flowing.....thank you once again khan academy
@@randomguy3390 oh, I guess people just assume he's from India. That's cool that he created this site. It's helped a lot of students since it started. It makes school seem useless
I'm having a hard time paying attention in class recently, I got stressed when I couldn't figure out my homework questions. This video cleared up lot of my confusion. I feel more confident in understanding how generators work. Thank you Khan Academy, you've helped me with math and physics many times now.
This man is the best teacher I've ever heard. This was made so crystal clear, my 11yo son could understand it and use it for his science fair project. Thank you, sir.
This explanation just made me secure a job. I watched this video about a week before the interview. During my interview the only technical question that was asked was for me to explain the simplest way of generating electricity. Believe me I nailed it.
Thank you so very much Mahesh and your team. It was indeed an excellent explanation with loads of patience and intricate details where children and even adults might get confused.
*Wow! Even if nobody will believe, i have searched and searched this thing for a long time. Since my childhood, that how stuff works; ive never came across someone who can explain with such an ease that even a child gets it. Thank you so much. I searched any but all gave book terms and jargons. No one actually knew how the frequency is there in AC. I was hoping to get the answer someday.* U know the feeling that when you want to get the answer to your question for years!!! Literally goosebumps!!! Thanks 🙏 today i learned about frequency in electricity. I have one more question that bugs me. That how in computers the circuits automates things. Like i know that we program them chips and all. But still, who does the automation? Please point me to the right direction.
Thanks for sharing, I am glad it helped. I remember seeing an old (and lengthy) video by Richard Feynman explaining how computers really work. Maybe that could help.
Khan Academy India - English thanks much. I searched. And found this. th-cam.com/video/EKWGGDXe5MA/w-d-xo.html can you plz check if this was the video you were talking about?
Khan Academy India - English thanks i watched it but it doesn't has what i was looking for. *Im not sure about one thing! Who controls these automations in chips? For ex: If i switch on a light bulb. I have to manually flick the switch ON to make it glow. But in computers i don't understand how they do it automatically? I want to understand how they do it. Is a something related to the chemicals used in chips or some thermo electarical thing which open and closes the circuit ay a desired temperature???* These two questions have bogged me for like ages. You solved one but this second question is driving me nuts. Plz if you can; I would really appreciate that.
@@jemsncrystals What do you mean by "do" when you say "how they do it automatically"? Computers require manual input too! You need to turn them on/off, type and double click on stuff you want them to run, etc. I guess you want to know when a program is running, who is, and how is it running that? What exactly is a program, anyway? - These are deep and curious questions that are beyond my domain of expertise, but I can give it a shot. Instead of a switch connected to a bulb, imagining 100s of billions of interconnected switches. Imagine turning on/off a switch can cause other switches to turn on/off, which could cause still more switches to turn on/off. This 'domino effect' is what I like to think of what 'running' a program means. So when you turn on the computer, for example, you are manually triggering a few switches, and then the domino effect begins. When it's done, your computer boots up. But again, as I said, take this with a pinch of salt - not an expert here. Do ask more questions! This is interesting!
i have been studying o level physics for a year and i was never able to truly grasp what was going on with the generators. but with this video when tomorrow's the o level physics CIE exam I have finally understood it. tysm khan academy
I learned this theory 60 years ago; L.H. rule for motors, R.H. rule for generators. As I didn't go on to work in the field I didn't ever fully get to grips with it, and have puzzled with my memory of it over the years. As I see it now, even a D.C. generator generates in A.C., the commutator acting to correct the A.C. to D.C.! Beautifully explained, thank you.
BEST EXPLANATION EVER!!! I had so much trouble getting my head around the flow of d.c and a.c in the armature. Its do with a.c having slip rings and d.c have split rings. Now I get it, thanks
sir, the explanation and the way you have presented this tutorial are very good for students. learning by visualization is the best method of studies. Students should explain this concept to others which will definitely be useful.
When i was a university student in 1980's without internet only with books / static images, to learn this things it was 100x more dificult to understand these basic concepts then it is today and for sure it took 100x more time than nowadays. Congratulations for the video.
for the love of God give this man an award for such an easy to understand video. I have gone to 3 classes and couldn't grasp the principals of generators, I watch this video now everything makes sense, thank you so much.
I don't know if you will see this comment but I've seen many videos with exceptional animation skills and great explanation techniques but this is the only video that has made me understand the whole concept of the difference between ac and dc motor and how it all connects to the concept of the fleming's left hand and right hand rule. This is the video I needed, the one I was searching for, for many days. Thank you so much. I was mostly confused on why there was a gap in the split ring commutators and this video fulfilled that doubt (thanks to the pausing you did to show the current reversing direction)
Just one comment to clear up my confusion. Your video never distinguished between conventional current and actual electron flow. I will assume that when using flemming's right hand rule for ac and dc generators that you are using coventional flow of electricity from + to - . Wonderful video. It removed the clouds from my eyes and cleared my brain. I am eternally grateful
Thank you ! The lesson generators was a very difficult one for me in physics. This video is a great help for me to understand the lesson very easily. From Sri Lanka
Hello!! This is an amazing video. Really helpful and comprehensive! I would like to ask you how do the rotating wires connect to the rings? Are there any smaller circuits inside the rings?
This an awesome video that matches a practical lesson with in the class! This can be understood by the little ones, this academy deserves appreciation! You helped alot of people! In you tube, there are lessons that are more important than the class lessons!! Thank you!
I’ve been struggling with this chapter for the past few months and I watched a TON of vids in the hopes that my brain would process something, but this one lit the lamp. Ty soo muchhh 😭
No channel...in the TH-cam....has created like your animation....for understanding...this. Concept....really great work, thank u my dear friend....really thank u it helped me a lot...and from now iam your new subscriber and I will share this to my friends
Which software do you use brother? ..... I want to explain concepts like this to my students. Please reply ASAP as they have their board exam next month. Thank you!
This is hands down the best explanation along with animation for this topic. This chapter was really confusing for my understanding earlier but it is literally a piece of cake now.
VERY well done! I'm an old dude who continues to be interested in power generation and distribution, so am always looking at content on TH-cam. Though I've known this principle for decades, I don't recall it ever being done so clearly. Of course, computers and software make this possible, but you have used them quite skillfully.
This video is far way better than classrooms. I could not understand it even after 3 classes but now everything is in my brain. Thank you, Khan Academy
Till date i had fear of physics but it was only you, Mahesh sir who changed my perspective and removed the fear. I am excelling in this subject everyday now!! Indeed grateful sir 😌
When I present during recitation my middle finger to my professor, he said it does not says to point the direction of current, but the direction to go out to the classroom. Why is that?
Huge thanks to this video for helping me understand this. I watched a different video on the same topic and I kept getting confused. I think the visual drawing really helped, they are better than just reading a diagram. I love Khan Academy

i know KA for several years but never got a chance to say thank you. Thank you so much for the selfless work. I never understood EMF concepts back in school and now a full cycle i'm trying to explain them to my child. 😀 its a bit confusing to see in real world windings on rotor are excited to work as magnets are the ones that rotates in the middle and armature sitting inside stator housing is constant but in theory its reversed. Also slipring /bush are used to supply DC, not drawing output. it would be more helpful for children to corelate if same analogy is used in lessons just a suggestion
