Answer to Question 1

The direction of rotation can be reversed or the polarity of the field winding can be reversed. A third way is to reverse the polarity of the load.

Answer to Question 2

Voltage from an ac generator can be increased by increasing the field current and hence the magnetic field ( B ), or by increasing the speed of the armature (v). If the

armature speed is changed, the output frequency will also change, so the best way to change the voltage is to change the field current.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
