Magnetism Flashcards
True or False: Magnetic lines of flux attract and cross paths
False. Magnetic lines of flux repel each other and never cross paths.
Basic law of magnetism
Like poles repel, unlike poles attract
How long do electromagnetic fields retain their magnetism
As long as current is flowing. The magnetic field stops once current stops.
More coils (turns of wire) =
More flux
Objects can be demagnetized how?
By 1. Striking, or 2. Heating
What is faradays law?
When the magnetic flux density in a conductor changes, the electromagnetic force will change directly
What formula is used to reflex faradays law?
E=Blv
Current enters source from
Positive to negative
Current enters a load from
Negative to positive
