True or False: An electromagnet is a permanent magnet.
What is False? An electromagnet can be turned on or off. Once the circuit is broken, the magnetism is lost.

What is a positive charge?
300
What part of a circuit does electrical energy change from one form to another?
What is a load (lightbulb)? This is where the energy changes to produce heat or light.
300
Which of these materials is not a conductor: copper, aluminum, gold, or wood?
What is wood?

True or False: A refrigerator magnet is a permanent magnet.
What is True? Even when you take it off the refrigerator, it is still magnetic.
400
True or False: All magnets have a north and south pole.
What is True?
