Q

Compasses always post by towards the

A

Earths North Pole

20
Q

A current flowing through a wire creates

A

a magnetic field around the wire

21
Q

The shape of a current flowing through a wire is

A

Concentric circles

22
Q

Distance vs magnetic field strength graph

A

As you move away from the wire the magnetic field falls non linearly

23
Q

As you move away from the wire, the magnetic field falls quickly at first and then

A

Falls more slowly

24
Q

A larger current will give a

A

Stronger magnetic field

25
In the right hand grip rule, the thumb is the
Current direction
26
In the right hand grip rule, the fingers are the
Magnetic field direction
27
The magnetic field for a solenoid is like a
Bar magnet
28
To increase a solenoid magnetic field you
Increase current. Increase turns. Place iron core inside solenoid
29
A solenoid is
Lots of cool around wire
30
Frequency is
The number of waves per second
31
Induced potential difference is the
Potential difference produced across a conductor that is cutting magnetic field lines
32
Loud speaker
Produces sound wave cuz a force exerted on a cone (arises from magnetic field due to coil and permanent magnet )
33
Microphone
Converts sound wave into electrical signal
34
What is the motor effect
When an current flowing wire is placed in a magnetic field, and the wire moves due to a force
35
Why is there a force on the wire
The current in the wire creates a magnetic field around wire which interacts with the magnetic field of magnet.
36
The force exerted on wire is increased by
A stronger magnet is used, the current is increased. More wire is used/more coils.
37
To reverse the direction of the wire (cause wire to move in opposite direction) you
Reverse the magnetic field/ reverse the current
38
Flemings left hand rule
First finger- magnetic field from N to S Second finger- current direction (flows from positive to negative side of battery) Thumb- shows which way the wire moves (the force on wire)
39
Right hand grip rule
Thumb- current | Other fingers- magnetic field
40
Motor
Component that produces rotation from the combination of the fields due to magnets and current-carrying wires
41
Rare fraction
A part of a sound wave where the pressure is low
42
Slip rings
The component of an alternator that connects the coil to a external circuit so an alternating potential difference is produced
43
Solenoid
A coil of wire
44
When does a coil fo wire produce a magnetic field
When a electrical current is introduced to it
45
Split ring commutator
A component of a direct current motor or DC generator
