A motor is a device: (i) Which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. (ii) which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. (iii) In which split-ring is used. Select the correct option. Correct Answer (ii) and (iii) both are correct

The correct answer is .(ii) and (iii) both are correct

Concept:

Electric motor:

  • An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
  • Principle:- It is based on the principle that when a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field perpendicular to it, it experiences a force.

Explanation:

Parts of an Electric Motor:

  • Power Source: A simple motor usually has a DC power source. It supplies power to the motor armature or field coils.
  • Armature Coil: A rectangular coil ABCD. 
  • Field Magnet: The magnetic field helps to produce a torque on the rotating armature coil by virtue of Fleming’s left-hand rule.
  • Armature Core: Holds the armature coil in place and provides mechanical support.
  • Commutator or Split ring: Two disjoint C-shaped rings P and Q. It acts as a commutator (which can reverse the direction of the current).
  • Brushes: It is a device that conducts current between stationary wires and moving parts, most commonly the rotating shaft.

In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labelled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option. A: An induction motor can, therefore, be made without electrical connections to the rotor. B: Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors are widely used as industrial drives because they are self-starting, reliable and economical. C: An induction motor's rotor can be either wound type or squirrel-cage type. D: An induction motor or asynchronous motor is an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor needed to produce torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding.

The human eye is a complex part of the body that is used for seeing. Eyes enable people to perform daily tasks and to learn about the world that surrounds them. Sight, or vision, is a rapidly occurring process that involves continuous interaction between the eye, the nervous system, and the brain. When someone looks at an object, what he really sees is the light reflected from the object. This reflected light passes through the lens and falls on the retina of the eye. Here the light induces nerve impulses that travel through the optic nerve to the brain and then over other nerves to muscles and glands.
The eye is similar to a television camera. Both the eye and the television camera convert light energy to electrical energy. The eye converts light to nerve impulses that are interpreted by the brain as the sense perception called sight. A television camera converts light to electronic signals that are broadcast and transformed into light images in a television receiver. It is wonderful that human eyes blink an average of once every six seconds. This washes the eye with the salty secretion from the tear or lachrymal glands. Each tear gland is about the size and shape of an almond. These glands are situated behind the upper eyelid at the outer corner of the eye. After passing over the eye, the liquid from the gland is drained into the nose through the tear duct at the inner corner of the eye. The sense perception that the brain releases after the eye converts light to nerve impulses is known as
