Answer to Question 1

Answer: Faraday's law states that voltage induced in a coil is proportional to the rate at which the magnetic field strength through the coil changes. It is also proportional to the number of turns on the coil. This change can be brought about by moving the coil, changing its shape, or changing the magnetic field strength. Because of Faraday's law, the production of current need not be restricted to batteries, but can be induced in a wire by any of the changes stated. Faraday's law underlies generators and has changed the electrical and industrial world.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Both electric motors and generators are similarly-constructed devices. Both have a permanent or electromagnet and coils of wire on a rotor. They differ mainly by the roles of input and output. When input is electrical energy, the rotor is made to spin and we have a motor. When input is mechanical energy that spins the rotor, the output is electric energy and we have a generator.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
