Permanent Magnets have two separate magnetic poles. They are called what?
The North Pole and the South Pole.
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
Magnetic induction is the process of using a magnetic field to change kinetic energy into what other kind of energy?
Electrical Energy
This the unit for measuring magnetic field. (Two possible answers!)
Gauss
Tesla
The magnetic field around a bar magnet points away from which pole and towards which pole?
Away from North and towards South.
What is the direction of the magnetic field at the location marked "B"?
Into the board.
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
The Earth is a giant bar magnet. Where geographically is the Earth's Magnetic North Pole?
In Antarctica (The Geographic South Pole)
A bar magnet is formed when the magnetic ___________ within a material align with each other.
Magnetic Domains
The magnetic field is given in red. In what direction is the current flowing through the point marked "I"?
Out of the board
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
This is the name of the scientist who discovered that electrical currents create magnetic fields.
Oerstead
If I set two magnets with their North Poles facing each other, how do they respond?
The magnets will repel away from each other.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
