Loudspeaker COIL MAGNET CONE
The signal generator sends an electrical ___________ through the coil. The ________ becomes magnetised. This pulls the coil towards the ____________. The coil is attached to the _________ so as the coil moves the cone also ________. As the current in the coil __________ the coil moves back and forwards, causing the cone to __________. This produces a sound. The vibrating cone produces ___________. current coil magnet cone moves changes vibrate sound
Force on a Current-carrying Conductor & Motor Effect
Reminder! Moving charges (electric currents) produce a magnetic field Conventional current – electrons flow in the opposite direction
Magnetic force on current We know that a current produces a magnetic field. It therefore makes sense that the current will be affected by placing a magnet nearby N S
Magnetic force on current Due to the magnetic field by the current the magnet will cause force on the wire. If there is no force holding the wire in place then the wire will move

Question Time! Magnetic fields Draw the magnetic field around: A straight wire b) a solenoid 2. What direction do magnetic field lines always point? 3. What happens to the magnetic field if the direction of the current is reversed? Fleming’s Left Hand Rule What happens to a wire carrying current when it is placed at right angles to a magnetic field? Draw a diagram showing the direction of current, magnetic field and movement. What angle are these all to each other?
