Alternating Current Alternating current is produced when an armature rotates about its axis in a magnetic field, as shown in the figure. Generators A and B rotate counterclockwise at 60 Hz (cycles per second) and each generator produces a maximum of 50 V. The voltage for each generator is modeled by
- (a) Find the voltage phase for each generator, and find the phase difference.
- (b) Are the generators producing voltage in phase? Through what angle should the armature in the second generator be rotated counterclockwise in order that the two generators produce voltage in phase?
