A

creating magnetism from electricity

18

why do coiled wires have higher magnetism?

A

lines of force add together
increased flux density

20

using CURRENT to create MOVEMENT

22
Q

what does the motor principles use?

A

1 temporary magnet
1 permanent magnet

23
Q

what type of current does the motor principles need to have

A

alternating current

24
Q

what is the conversion of energy for electromagnetism

A

creating ELECTRICITY FROM MAGNETISM

26
Q

what does electromagnetic induction use

A

a permanent magnet
conductor
movement

27
Q

what must happen to create induction

A

the conductor MUST cross the magnetic lines of force

28
Q

when (in movement) is an induction system at 0V?
peak voltage?

A

0V when moving parallel to line
peak V when moving perpendicular

29
Q

what factors affect induced voltage

A

permanent magnet strength
armature (loops in coil, iron core size)
speed of movement
angle armature crosses the lines of force at

30
Q

what does a transformer do

ratio > 1 step-up
ratio < 1 step-down

32
