Resumo de Recurso

Questão Responda
What is created when current flows through a wire? a magnetic field
A magnetic field can be strengthened by -adding an iron core -adding more coils in wire -increasing the current (adding more cells)
What can a low current circuit be used to do? switch on a high current circuit
How is a low current circuit used to switch on a high current circuit? using an electromagnet in a relay circuit
How can an electromagnet be used in a circuit breaker? if there's a high current, it flows through the electromagnet, which then attract a metal part of the circuit, and break it
What does each finger represent in Fleming's left hand rule? Thumb - movement Index finger - direction of magnetic field Middle finger - direction of current
In what direction is a magnetic field? North to South
What direction does current flow in? positive to negative
How can the force of the movement of the wire be increased? -increasing the current -increasing the magnetic field
How can the movement of the wire be reversed? -reversing magnetic field OR -reversing the current
How does a motor work? -both sides of circuit between magnets -have opposite movements of current -wire move in opposite directions on either side of the circuit -creates a turning effect
