Unit 3 - Magnetism  

A) Magnetism is a ___________that exists between _____________________

 ______________________always create _____________

 

·        Natural Magnetism comes from - spinning _______________ in atoms

 ·        Electric current - Where there is ______________there is always_________________

 

B) Magnetic Fields - regions in ______________ where a magnetic _____________ may be detected

 

            We will focus on fields around:

          1) current carrying ___________

                   
                    2) permanent and
___________________________

 

Example 1)  Magnetic _____________around a Bar Magnet - (Note: Actual Magnetic Fields contain many more lines of magnetism)    

 

 

1.     Magnetic flux lines - _________________________________in a magnetic field.

           

A magnetic field is not _______________________.

 

Between each line of magnetism their exist __________________

 

a)   The ______________of a ________________line up perfectly with the flux lines

 

b)   The _________________on a flux line show where the _________________Pole of a compass would point in that field.

 

REMEMBER THIS: Flux arrows point _____________________________________and back over again to North

 

c)    Magnetic force strongest at the _______________where flux lines are ________

 

d)   Measuring the strength of a magnetic field

QUESTION: How do you measure the strength of a magnetic field?

ANSWER: Put a ____________ with a known current into the field and measure the ____________
