As a new electrical engineer for the local power company, you are assigned the project of designing a generator of sinusoidal ac voltage with a maximum voltage of 120 {\rm v}. besides plenty of wire, you have two strong magnets that can produce a constant uniform magnetic field of 1.1{\rm t} over a square area with a length of 10.4{\rm cm} on a side when the magnets are separated by a distance of 11.6{\rm cm} . the basic design should consist of a square coil turning in the uniform magnetic field. to have an acceptable coil resistance, the coil can have at most 350 loops. what is the minimum rotation rate of the coil so it will produce the required voltage? express your answer using two significant figures.

Explanation:

B = Magnetic field = 1.1 T

L = Length of square = 10.4 cm

A = Area of square =

t = Time taken

V = Voltage = 120 V

N = Number of turns = 350

= Angular frequency

Voltage in the generator is given by

Voltage is maximum when

The minimum rotation rate of the coil so it will produce the required voltage is

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
