magnet

Magnet Every magnet, regardless of its shape, has two magnetic poles. North & South

Opposites attract Magnetic poles that are unlike attract each other. Magnetic poles that are alike repel

What are magnets attracted to? Iron

Magnets keep train on track Pg. 46-47 Maglev Video Magnets keep train on track

A maglev train floats above its rails due to magnetism.

Magnetic Force- the attraction or repulsion between magnetic Pg. 48 Magnetic Force- the attraction or repulsion between magnetic

Force- a push or pull that can cause an object to change its motion

Magnetic Field A magnetic force is produced when magnetic poles are intact The is a picture of the invisible “magnetic fields”. Someone poured “iron fillings” on top of the magnet for them to appear. Magnetic field is spread out and curved

Magnetic Pole- an end of a magnetic object, where the magnetic force is “strongest” The farther away the weaker the force is

Magnetic Field Magnetic Field Lines Compass Magnetic Declination Lesson 2 Vocabulary Magnetic Field Magnetic Field Lines Compass Magnetic Declination

Pg. 59 1a. Define a magnetic field. 1b. Describe the magnetic field of a south/south pole arrangement.

Compass- is a device that has a magnet on a needle that spins freely Does a compass always point North?

A compass behaves as it does because the EARTH acts as a giant magnet.

The compass needle doesn't point toward the earth's North Pole, it is aligned with the local field lines, which may not even point to the magnetic North Pole.

However, they are close enough to get you towards the right direction.   The poles of a magnetized compass needle align themselves with Earth’s “North Magnetic Field” not necessarily the “North Pole”. However, they are close enough to get you towards the right direction.

The difference between the magnetic poles and geographic poles. Magnetic Declination The difference between the magnetic poles and geographic poles.

Free Test question As Earth’s magnetic poles move, the magnetic declination in a given location will change.

Do the math pg. 61

Quiz 1 What does a North & North magnetic pole do? What does a North & South magnetic pole do? Magnet Force Where is the strongest part of a magnetic field / the weakest A magnet always points which direction What is the magnetic rock called?

Electromagnet lab

How can you increase the strength of an electromagnet’s field? Wire Battery (ferromagnetic material) Solenoid Loops Loose loops vs tight loops USING A STRONGER FERROMAGNETIC (BATTERY) MATERIAL FOR THE CORE

ELECTROMAGNET A STRONG MAGNET THAT CAN BE TURNED ON AND OFF

INCREASING THE NUMBER OF LOOPS IN A SOLENOID WILL CAUSE THE STRENGTH OF ITS MAGNETIC FILED TO ______________?

Hans Christian Oersted

A COMPASS MIGHT NOT POINT NORTH IF PLACED NEAR A WIRE WITH A CURRENT, WHY? THE CURRECT (MAGNET) CREATES ANOTHER MAGNETIC FIELD ASIDE FROM THE EARTH’S NATURAL MAGNETIC FIELD AND CHANGES THE DIRECTION

Electric motor- transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy in an object that is used to do work. In other words, it is energy in an object due to its motion or position, or both. Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge. 

Do car motors have magnets? Almost anything that uses a motor or electricity to operate is built with magnets

Magnet fact Magnets are attracted to IRON.

How can iron fillings be used to map out the magnetic field of an magnet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8XNHlV6Qxg
