magnetism and electromagnetism Flashcards
what is magnetic field line?
a line shows the direction of a magnetic field
what is a uniform magnetic field?
the magnetic field lines are parallel and same directions
is the direction of the magnetic field the same as the direction of the current?
no use the right hand grip rule to find the field.
how can you tell which way the forces act?
by Fleming’s left hand rule
the larger the electric current, the x the magnetic field is
stronger
how to speed up the electric motor?
more current
more turns on the coil
stronger magnetic field
a soft iron core in the coil
is the direction of magnetic field from south to north?
no from north to south
how to produce a magnetic field?
an electric current in a conductor produce magnetic field
how can a loudspeaker produce sound wave?
change the current constantly and produce vibration
what is the opposite word of attraction?
repulsion
