Two Magnets Walk into A Bar
Wait, Which Hand?

Magnets, How do they work?
100

Permanent Magnets have two separate magnetic poles. They are called what?

The North Pole and the South Pole.

100

The technique/tool/secret handshake we can use to figure out the direction of a magnetic field cast by a wire.

The Right Hand Rule

100

Magnetic induction is the process of using a magnetic field to change kinetic energy into what other kind of energy?

Electrical Energy

100

This the unit for measuring magnetic field. (Two possible answers!)

Gauss

Tesla

200

The magnetic field around a bar magnet points away from which pole and towards which pole?

Away from North and towards South.

200

What is the direction of the magnetic field at the location marked "B"?

Into the board.

200

This machine uses magnetic induction to create electrical energy by using the energy of the wind, or some burnable chemical to turn a turbine.

A Generator

200

The Earth is a giant bar magnet. Where geographically is the Earth's Magnetic North Pole?

In Antarctica (The Geographic South Pole)

300

A bar magnet is formed when the magnetic ___________ within a material align with each other.

Magnetic Domains

300

The magnetic field is given in red. In what direction is the current flowing through the point marked "I"?

Out of the board

300

We move a magnet through a loop of wire to create a current with induction. If we increase the number of loops, what will happen to the voltage generated?

The Voltage will Increase

300

This is the name of the scientist who discovered that electrical currents create magnetic fields.

Oerstead

400

If I set two magnets with their North Poles facing each other, how do they respond?

The magnets will repel away from each other.

400

At a distance of 10 cm from a wire, we measure the magnetic field as being 10 G. What magnetic field would we measure at a distance of 5 cm?

20 G.

400

We move a magnet through a loop of wire to create a current with induction. If we use a stronger magnet, what should happen to the current?

The current will increase.

400

The equation which allows you to calculate the magnetic field cast by a current carrying wire. (Bonus points if you can tell me the equation!)

Ampere's Law

B=μ0I/2𝝅r 

500

Only particular metals are magnetic, and others are not. Name either a metal which is magnetic, AND metal which is NON-magnetic. Be sure to indicate which is which!

Magnetic: Iron or it's derivitives, Neobdinium, Manganese, Cobalt, Nickel

Non-Magnetic: Copper, Aluminium, Gold, Silver, Brass

500

A wire carries a current to the right across the page. A second wire beneath it does the same. What is the TOTAL magnetic field between the wires?

0. The magnetic ieelds will cancel out.

500

We move a magnet through a loop of wire to create a current with induction. If we slow the magnet down, what should happen to the current?

The current will decrease.

500

This device uses magnetic induction to convert between a high voltage current in one wire and a low voltage current in a different wire.

A transformer.
