Magnetism(Review)
2
Magnetic Field Lines always move out of the
__________end of a magnet!
  1. East
  2. North
  3. South
  4. West

3
Magnetic Field Lines always move into the
__________end of a magnet!
  1. East
  2. North
  3. South
  4. West

4
Where are all magnets the strongest?
  1. At the North Pole
  2. At the South Pole
  3. At both Poles
  4. Directly in the center

5
Magnets can be made of iron, _________, or nickel.
  1. Copper
  2. Carbon
  3. Cobalt
  4. Cadmium

6
Two similar poles of a bar magnet will always
_____________.
  1. attract
  2. repel

7
Two opposite poles of a bar magnet will always
_____________.
  1. attract
  2. repel

8
Electromagnetism
  • --the relationship b/w electricity and magnetism

9
Is there a relationship between electricity and
magnetism? Lets see what I discovered!!!
Hans Christian Oersted
10
Oersteds Law
  • The flow of electricity through a wire conductor
    produces a magnetic field around the wire.

11
Right Hand Rule
  • The direction of the current determines the
    direction of the magnetic field.

12
Can anything affect the strength of a magnetic
field?
13
2 things affect the strength of a magnetic field
  • Amount of current
  • Increase current increase strength
  • Decrease current decrease strength
  • of coils of wire
  • More turns of wire more strength
  • Less turns of wire less strength

14
I was just wondering what would happen if I
slammed an iron core through a current carrying
coil of wire?
What did you find out?
15
If you take an iron core and insert it into a
coil of current carrying wire, you have a
temporary magnet called an electromagnet!!
16
Strength of an Electromagnet
  • 2 things affect the strength of an
    electromagnet(same 2 things that affect the
    strength of a magnetic field)
  • Amount of Current
  • of turns of wire( of coils)

17
What happens to the strength of an electromagnet
if the current through the wire increases from 4
A to 9 A?
  1. Remains the same
  2. Increases
  3. Decreases

18
Which electromagnet will be the strongest?
B
A
19
Uses of Electromagnets
  • Electric Meters because of their ability to
    detect current(only work when there is one),
    electromagnets are used in a variety of electric
    meters.
  • Ammetermeasures current
  • Wired in series
  • Voltmetermeasures voltage
  • Wired in parallel
  • Galvonometerdetects current

20
Uses of electromagnets(cont.)
  • Motors
  • Use electromagnets to convert electrical energy
    into mechanical energy
  • An electromagnet turns inside a permanent magnet

21
Motors
22
If current moving through a wire produces a
magnetic field, I wonder
.What would happen if we move a wire through a
magnetic field
23
I bet it has never been tested. Lets try it!!!
Ill try anything once!!
24
Havent we already done that?
Joseph Henry
Michael Faraday
25
Faraday and Henry discovered that moving a wire
through a magnetic field, or moving a magnetic
field through a coil of wire induced a current
on the wire!! Electromagnetic Inductionprocess
in which moving a wire through a magnetic field
produces a current on the wire.
26
.produces a current on a wire.Did we just
create electricity
  • Generatorsuse electromagnets to convert
    mechanical energy into electrical energy.

28
Other Uses of electromagnets
Transformers
Are you talking about me?
Not this Kind!!!!
29
Alternating vs. Direct Current
  • Alternating Current
  • Direct Current
  • Current alternates, one direction, then the other.
  • Current only goes in one direction.

Plug it in, Plug it in!!
30
Transformers
  • Used to increase or decrease the voltage of
    alternating currents.

31
Transformers
  • Consist of 2 coils of wire.
  • Primary Coil
  • Alternating current enters
  • Secondary Coil
  • Alternating current leaves
  • Its the difference in the number of turns of
    wire on each coil that causes the voltage the
    change.

32
2 Types of Transformers
  • Step-up Transformer
  • Increase voltage
  • Secondary more turns than primary
  • Step-down Transformer
  • Decrease voltage
  • Primary more turns than secondary

33
Math of a Transformer
34
A step-up transformer has 400 turns on its
primary coil and 600 turns on its secondary coil.
If the primary coil is supplied with 120 V of
alternating current, what will be the secondary
(output) voltage?
ns 600 turns np 400 turns Vs
? Vp 120
