25
Other way electric can current can be made using a magnet and a conductor on a small scale
Moving a coil of wire between magnetic poles
26
First part of how a transformer works
An alternating current goes through the primary coil
27
Second part of how a transformer works
This induces a changing magnetic field in the core
28
Third part of how a transformer works
This changing magnetic field induces an electromagnetic force which produces a current in the secondary coil
29
What does a commutator do
Switches connections every half turn
30
First part of microphone working
Sound waves cause variations in air pressure
31
Second part of microphone working
The pressure variations make a diaphragm vibrate
32
Third part of microphone working
The diagram moves a coil of wire back and forth
33
First part of loudspeaker working
Varying current flows through a coil in a magnetic field
34
Second part of loudspeaker working
This causes a force on the coil which moves back and forth as current varies
35
Third part of loudspeaker working
Coil connected to a diagram and the movements of the diaphragm produce sound waves
36
First part of how a step up transformer works
Primary coil has fewer turns
37
Second part of step up transformer working
An AC current produces a magnetic field in the primary coil
38
Third part of step up transformer working
The iron cores magnetic field induces a higher voltage in secondary coil
39
Fourth part of step up transformer working
Power is conserved so this produces a lower current
40
First part of an electric motor working
A coil of wire carrying a current is placed in a magnetic field
41
Second part of an electric motor working
The forces on the two sides perpendicular to the field experiences forces in opposite directions
42
Third part of electric motor working
This causes rotational effect
43
Why must the current flowing through the primary coil of a transformer be alternating
For current to be induced in the secondary coil, the magnetic field in the core must be continuously changing. For the magnetic field to be changing the current in the primary coil must be alternating
44
What does a generator consist of
A coil of wire that is rotated inside a magnetic field
45
What are the ends of the coil connected to in a generator
A slip ring
46
How is electrical contact with an external circuit made in a generator
carbon brushes that press on the slip rings
47
How is magnetic field made
Two opposite permanent magnets on each side
48
What do carbon brushes do in a motor
Make electrical contacts between circuit and motor
49
What is in middle of electrical motor
Pivot
50
Where does ammeter need to be
Part of main circuot
51
Where does voltmeter need to be
In parralel across what you are measuring
52
How many results do you need
Atleast 6 so you can spot a pattern
53
What is ohms law
R=V/I
54
Displacement of iregular solid with measuring cylinder
Half fill it put object in increase in volume is volume of object
55
How do you measure mass
Digital balance
56
Displacement can what is volume of object
Volume of water displaced
57
What is first part of final practical
Investigate the properties of water by determining the | specific heat capacity of water
58
Second part of final core practical
obtaining a temperaturetime graph for melting ice
59
How to set up first part of final practical
Get a joule metre connected to a heater in water with a thermometer in the beaker,
60
Equation for specific heat capacity
Energy/mass x temperature change
61
Do gasses have a fixed volume
No
62
What can liquids do
Diffuse
