Science GA 1.3 Flashcards

1
Q

Before the term magnet was used. Found by Greeks more than 2000 years ago in a coastal district of ancient Thessaly, Greece. These iron-rich ores had an amazing property of attracting pieces of iron

Q

Made an experiment and demonstrated in his class that a compass was being deflected when it was placed near a current-carrying wire. This was the birth of combining electricity and magnetism or electromagnetism after a long time of studying electricity and magnetism independently

Q

Suggested that electric current could exert a magnetic force and a current-carrying wire produced a magnetic field. He found out that when the currents of the wires are in the same direction, the two wires attract each other while they repel if the currents are in opposite directions because of the action-reaction magnetic force produced by these currents

Q

It is used to find the direction of the magnetic field using your right thumb in the direction of the current in the wire and curling your fingers. Your fingers will be curled in the same direction as the magnetic field around the wire

Q

Are devices consisting of a core of magnetic material surrounded by a coil through which an electric current is passed to magnetize the core. Is used wherever controllable magnets are required, as in contrivances in which the magnetic flux is to be varied, reversed, or switched on and off

Q

-Whenever there is relative movement between the magnet and the coil of wire in the setup discussed, voltage is induced
-A changing magnetic field will induce voltage in the coil, causing current to flow along the coil of wire

A
