(a) For Problem 1:
Since E = 2 N B l v sin , then with N, B, l and being constant, E v
It was shown that 72.38 V is produced by a speed of 1500 rev/min,
Thus,
Hence,
1500
1 V would be produced by a speed of 72.38 = 20.72 rev/min
60 V would be produced by a speed of 60 20.72 = 1243 rev/min

It was shown that 47.50 V is produced by a speed of 450 rev/min,
Thus,
Hence,
450
1 V would be produced by a speed of 47.50 = 9.474 rev/min
60 V would be produced by a speed of 60 9.474 = 568 rev/min
Thus,
Hence,
1.6
1 V would be produced by a flux density of 72.38 = 0.0221 T
60 V would be produced by a flux density of 60 0.0221 = 1.33 T
For Problem 2:

Thus,
Hence,
1.4
1 V would be produced by a flux density of 47.50 = 0.0295 T
60 V would be produced by a flux density of 60 0.0295 = 1.77 T
