Answer Posted / rakesh

Alternator works on the principle of dynamicaly induced emf
which is induced when a constant flux is cut by a rotating
conductor , So dc exitation produce constant flux THUS DC
IS USED FOR EXITATION

Given a collection of points P in the plane, a 1-set is a point in P that can be separated from the rest by a line; i.e. the point lies on one side of the line while the others lie on the other side. The number of 1-sets of P is denoted by n1(P). The maximum value of n1(P) over all configurations P of 19 points in the plane is 18
