| This device detects electrical current produced by way of electromagnetic induction. | galvanometer |
| These show up when you pour iron filings around a magnet. | magnetic field lines |
| What results when you continue to cut a magnet and its resulting parts in half? | Smaller and smaller magnets all having both north and south poles. |
| What are examples of conductors? | metal, people, water |
| What are examples of insulators? | paper, wood, cloth, plastic, rubber, air, glass |
| What are four types of magnets? | Ferromagnet, permanent magnet, temporary magnet, and electromagnet |
| In a circuit, what happens to current if you raise the voltage? | it increases |
| In a circuit, if you increase resistance, what happens to current? | it decreases |
| Using Ohm's law (V=IR) what is the voltage in a circuit that has 10 amps and 100 Ohms? | 1000V |
| What are domains? | Tiny groups of atoms whose magnetic fields are lined up. |
| How does friction charge an object? | electrons are "wiped" from one surface to another |
| If an object's electrons are rearranged by direct contact, what charging method was used? | conduction |
| How does induction rearrange an object's electrons? | electron's are arranged by a nearby object |
| If a magnetic field is disturbed by a rotaing coil, what is produced? | induced current |
| Conductors....... | allow the free movement of electricity. |
| Insulators....... | block the free movement of electricity. |
| Oersted discovered that a moving electric current produces........ | a magnetic field |
| Magnetic poles are where........ | the magnetic force is strongest. |
| A load, wires, and energy source are the basic parts of a.......? | circuit |
| In this circuit if one part goes bad, there is still an available pathway for the electricity. | parallel |
| In this type of circuit, if one part goes bad, the whole circuit goes out. | series |
| Ultimately, what is responsible for producing a material's magnetism? | its atoms |
| Three ways to demagnetize a temporary magnet are..... | hit it, heat it, or put it in a stronger magnetic field. |
| If an object gains electrons, it becomes.... | negative |
| If an object loses electrons, it becomes..... | positive |
| This is a build up of non-moving electrical charge..... | static electricity |
| What kind of transformer has fewer coils of wire in its primary coil than in its secondary coil? | step-up transformer |
