100

This term describes a "push" force between two of the same magnetic poles.

Repulsion/Repel

100

When two magnets with attractive forces are moved further apart, this is what happens to the amount of energy that can be transferred.

Increases

100

In an electromagnet, the magnetic field is only present when this is flowing through the coil of wire.

Electric Current/Electricity

100

In a collision, how many object deform?

All in the collision

100

What needs to be created in order for a sound to be created?

Vibration

200

This term describes a "pull" force between two opposite magnetic poles.

Attraction/Attract

200

Magnetic forces move out of or away from this pole and into or toward the other.

North pole

200

What materials do you need to create an electromagnet? 

A power source (battery)

A coil (wire)

200

Forces are always what?

Forces always come in equal strength and opposite directions.

200

Does sound need a medium to transfer energy?

Yes, that is why there is no sound in a vacuum.

300

This term describes the movement of charged particles through a circuit that transfers energy.

Electrical Current

300

Do magnets need a medium to transfer energy?

No, magnetism works in a vacuum.

300

To make an electromagnet stronger without adding more batteries, you can ...

Increase the number of coils

Increase the diameter of the coil

300

Which factors affect kinetic energy and lead to higher peak forces?

Speed

Mass

300

Which factor of sound affects the highness or lowness of sound you hear?

Pitch (frequency of wave)

400

This term describes the invisible 3-D space around a magnet.

Magnetic Field

400

This is where a magnet "stores" its energy.

Magnetic Field

400

To change the poles of an electromagnet, you must flip the direction of the ... 

Electrical current

You do this by flipping the battery

400

Which force is the main "inhibitor" of kinetic energy?

Friction

400

Which state of matter does sound travel the fastest through?

Solid

500

This term describes materials that are strongly attracted to a magnet, and which can be made into a magnet.

Ferromagnetic

500

Draw the magnetic field of an attractive force between two magnets? 

500
