QuestionAnswer
What will an Electric Current have around?It will have a Magnetic Field
What factors can affect the Magnetic Field around an Electric Current-Larger the Current, Bigger the Magnetic Field
In a Straight Current Carrying wire, what does the Magnetic Field look like?There are Concentration Circles around the Wire. The Direction of the Field can be done by the Right Hand Rule.
How can you prove there is a Magnetic Field Lines in the CurrentUsing a Compass, that will Point in the Field lines or Iron Fillings.
What is the Right Hand Rule in terms of MagnetismThis can show the Direction of the Magnetic Field Lines in a Straight Current Carrying wire. Simply point where the Current is going, and where you hand Curls around, is the Direction of the Field Lines
Explain the Relationship with Distance and Magnetic Flux DensityThe further away you are from the line, the Magnetic Flux Density will get weaker They are Inversely Proportional.
What is the Magnetic Field in a Flat Circular CoilThe centre can compare to the Bar Magnets Field Lines, and around the coil is Ellipses of Magnetic Field Lines.
What does Lots of Coils of Wire make?This can make a Solenoid
Describe the Magnetic Field of a Solenoid-The insides, has the Magnetic Field very Strong, and Uniform -The outsides, has the Magnetic Field like a Bar Magnet [North goes to South] -The Ends of the Solenoid are like the Poles of a Magnet. This is called an Electromagnet.
What factors can Increase the Magnetic effect on the Ends of the Solenoid-Current of the Wire changes -Number of Turns [More coils of wire, but length the same] -Length of Solenoid [Number of Turns don't change] [Decrease = Increase in Magnetic Effect] -Iron Core is put in the Insides
