===== Project 13 ===== ==== Project 13A: Clean Source of Energy or Hidden Stash of Jellybeans??? ==== {{ 184_notes:13a_picture.png?700 |Alternative Energy Source}} The people of Lakeview are starting to get used to living life in the magnetic field, now that it seems to be doing a pretty good job keeping EM-boar tigers from entering the town and causing mayhem. Local alternative energy scientist Alysson Watersa has even installed a source of clean energy that is made possible by the magnetic field. She has constructed a water mill with her bare hands and situated it into the side of the cliff, conveniently below a waterfall so that the motion of the water turns the mill at a frequency of $15 \text{ rpm}$. Dr. Watersa also fixed a board along the axle of the mill, and she has laid a loop of 12-Gauge copper wire (with a radius of $1 \text{ m}$) on the board. One end of the loop becomes a wire that comes out the side of the board and is grounded into the cliff. The other end of the loop becomes a wire that runs out the other side of the mill, all the way back to Lakeview. As the mill turns, so does the loop, causing a current to exist in the wire, which can be used as a small convenience for the good people of Lakeview. Unfortunately, local superstitious person Manny Callabero is causing a ruckus about the new energy source. He claims that it's all hocus pocus, and Dr. Watersa is just using the water mill as a ploy to hide her stash of jellybeans in the face of the cliff in order to avoid sharing. He won't listen to Dr. Watersa for even a second, so it's up to you to explain to Manny how the water mill works and why it produces the current that it does. It may be helpful for Manny to see a diagram of the mill and a graph of the current produced. Be as detailed as possible, as Manny can be very stubborn about changing his mind. Dr. Watersa's blueprints, shown below, may be helpful. {{ 184_notes:13a_representation.png?600 |Diagram}}
