- 16:1716:17, 22 October 2022 diff hist +301 N Glossary:Back EMF Created page with "Any electric motor functions equally as a dynamo, and when it's running, the dynamo effect generates a voltage known as the back EMF. This always opposes the voltage applied to drive the motor. The electrical work done in opposing the back EMF is what turns up as mechanical work on the motor spindle." current

This is the principal on which all dynamos and generators rely." current
- 20:5820:58, 19 October 2022 diff hist +211 N Glossary:Dynamic microphone Created page with "A dynamic microphone contains a permanent magnet and a coil which vibrates in sympathy with the sound, inducing a small voltage in the coil by the principle of magnetic induction." current

When charged to a relatively high voltage, the varying capacitance between them generates a varying output."
- 20:3220:32, 19 October 2022 diff hist +284 N Glossary:Electret microphone Created page with "An electret microphone is one containing an electret material (having a built-in electric charge) to convert the sound into a varying electric charge. An FET is always incorporated in it requiring a supply of a few volts, to convert the charge into a varying voltage." current
