somesuch means are necessary. Fig. 25 shows the same machine as Fig. 24, except thatthe armature is driven in the opposite direction by me-chanical power. We have the north pole at the top andthe current tending to flow through the wire in the samedirection as in Fig. 24. There will be a drag on… … Figure 25 Motion of a wire i*i a magnetic field and theresulting current.
