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.

A cataract is a clouding of the eyes' natural lens. As we age, some clouding of the lens may occur. The first sign of a cataract is usually blurry vision. Although glasses and other visual aids may at first help a person with cataracts, surgery may become inevitable. Cataract surgery is very successful in restoring vision, and it is the most frequently performed surgery in the United States.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.
