Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Name a magnetic element
Iron, nickel, cobalt and gadolinium
What will happen to 2 norths poles if they are brought together?
The will repel
What will happen to a north and south pole if they are brought together?
They will attract
You bring the north pole of a magnet towards one end of an iron bar and it attracts. What will happen if you take the north pole to the other end of the iron bar.
It will also attract.
Where is the strongest part of the magnetic field created by a bar magnet?
At the poles
What happens to the distance between magnetic field lines when the field gets stronger?
The field lines get closer together
A steel paper clip is brought into a magnetic field and attached to the end of a bar magnet. The paperclip now behaves as a magnet, what type of magnetism is this?
Induced magnetism
Why does a compass needle point north?
The needle is a magnet, the north pole of the needle is attracted to the south pole of the Earth
What does the Earth's magnetic field protect us from?
Solar winds
When the activity of the sun is high, charged particles from solar winds can flow along the earth's magnetic field lines and enter the atmosphere near the poles. What visual effect does this create?
The Aurora borealis (northern lights)
What magnetic element does the alloy steel contain?
Iron
The magnetic field lines of a bar magnet are invisible to us. What could you use to visualise the field?
Sprinkle iron filings into the field or use a compass needle in the field.
What will happen to the compass needles when a current flows through the wire?
The needles will line up with the magnetic field created by the current carrying wire
What happens to the strength of the magnetic field created by a current carrying wire as you get further from the wire?
The field gets weaker
Give one way you could increase the strength of the magnetic field created by this solenoid.
Increase the current / increase the number of turns / put an iron bar through the middle
What will happen when the bell switch is closed?
The electromagnet will attracted the iron armature which will ring the bell
What type of magnet allows this scrap crane to pic up and then drop scrap steel?
An electromagnet (these can be turned on and off)
A superconductor is a material that when cooled will allow a massive amount of current to flow through it. Why does this MRI machine use superconducting wires for its electromagnet?
A very strong electromagnet requires massive amounts of current.
The north pole of a bar magnet is brought towards an Aluminium bar, what happens?
Nothing, Aluminium is non magnetic
Which pole of the Earth's magnetic field is at the "North Pole"?
The south pole
Which pole is Y?
South pole (it is attracting the north pole of the compass)
What will happen to the compass needle if the bar magnet is rotated 180o?
The needle will point the other way
Which pole is X?
North
If you are looking from above, which direction will the magnetic field created by this wire be going?
Clockwise (use the right hand thumb rule)
Define the motor effect...
A current carrying wire placed in an external magnetic field will experience a force.
Explain how the motor effect causes this motor to spin
The left hand side of the coil experiences a downward force, the right hand side of the coil experiences an upward force.
Explain the role of the commutator in this motor
The commutator changes the direction of the current when the coil rotates, this keeps the coil going in a circle.
