4. magnetic field is weaker
31
what is flemmings leftr hand rule
1. second fingure - direction of magnetuic field
2. middle - direction of current
3. thumb - direction of the force
32
what happens when a conductor carrying a current is placed in a magnetic field
the conductor and the magnet producing the field will exert a foce on one another (unless conductor is parallel to field lines
33
when is a force only exerted on a conductor
if the conductor is perpendircular to the filed lines
34
what happens when the wire iis parallel to the field lines
there is no magnetic force exerted on it
35
what does a motor do
produces a force that moves things
36
what does battery produces
direct current
37
where does convectional current flow from
postive terminal of the battery to the negative
38
how did the direction of the rotatipon of the motor be reversed
1. reverse the direction of magnetic field
2. reverse the polarity of the battery
39
what causes the coil to rorate in a clockwise direction
when the left side of the coil is forced upwards and the right side is forced downwards in a motor
40
when a coil of wire is carrying current, where is it placed
around the permanent magnet
41
the magnetic field around the coil of wire and what will interact
and that of the permanement magnet will interact with each other
42
what causes the coil of wire to rotate
when the magnetic field around the coil of wire and that of the permanent magnet interact with each other and exert a force on the coil of wire
43
what is the motor effect
1. when a coil of wire is carrying current it is placed around the permanent magnet
2 the magnetic field around the coil of wire and that of the permanent magnet interact with each other
3. and exert a force on the coil of wire causing it to rotate
44
how do you maintain the rotation of the coil of wire in the motor effect
a split ring commutator is used
45
what does a split ring commutator do
it rotates with the coil between the carbon brushes
46
what happens each time the coil passes the vertical positon, split ring commutator
the direction in which current flows around the coil
47
what allows for continous rotation of the coil
each time the coil passes the vertical position, the direction which current flows around the coil changes
48
what way is the coil of wire supposed to be rotating
clockwise, everytime it goes past the vertucal position
49
what is the role of a loud speaker
to amplify sound
50
what is inside a loudspeaker
a magnet and there are coils of wire around the magnet
51
how does a loud speaker wordk
1, when a current flows through the coil both the coil and the speaker come to experience a force
2. when the direction of the current through the coil reverses so does the direction of the force exerted on it and the speaker cone
3. supplying an alternating electrical input signal to the speaker will cause the cone to vibrate back and forth producing a sound wave
52
how do you increase the size of the uunduced pd
1. move the magnet more quickly
2. use a stronger magnet
3. increase the number of turns on the coil
4. increase the area of the coil
53
what do you need to generate electricity
magnet, wire and movement
54
how do yyou reverse the direction of induced pd
1. reverse the drirection in which the magnet is moved
2. reverse the magnetic field direction
55
when does magneticc flux density change
when the wire cuts through it
56
when is a magnetic field generated
when an induced current flows through a wire
57
what will always acy so as to oppose the change that created it
an induced magnetic field
58
what is a repulsive force between
the north poel of the magnet and the induced north pole of the coil
59
work myst be done aganist thhe repilsive force in order to push the magnet towards the coil, as a result of what
the repulsive force betweem the north pole of the magnet and the induced north pole of the coil
60
what happens when a wire is moved in between two magnets
an induced p.d is created
61
what happpens when a wire is connected in a complete circuit
an induced current is produced
62
what happens when a coil of wire is moved in between two magnets
electricity is generfated
63
what is the role of an alternator
to allow kinetic energy of the a rotating coil to produce electricity
64
what happens when the regtangular coil is rotated
it cuts throught the magnetic flux of the peranemet magnetic filed. this causes alternating current to be induced
65
how can the inuced pd be increase in the alternator
1, rotating the coil more quickly
2. increasing the strength of the magnetic field
3. increasing the number of turns
4. increasing the area of the coil
66
what is each end of the coil permanent attached to
one of the slip rings
67
what happens when a given side of the coil is moving upwards through the magnetic field
current will flow through it in one direction
68
when the same side of the coil is moving downwards through the magnetic field, what happens
current will flow through it in the opposite direction
69
how many times does the direction of the current alterantes during each full rotation of the coil
2
70
what is the role of a microphone
magnifices sound by producing an alternate current
71
how does a microphone work
1. when a sound waves ishit onto the surface of the microphone the flexible diaphragm vibrates back and forth
2. this causes the coil which is attached to it too vobrate back and forth
3. an alternating current is induced
4. this alternating current can be amplified before being used to drive a loudspeaker
