In _______, cobalt, nickel and a few other metals the atoms exert a _______ on the other atoms around them. Because of these forces, _______ groups of atoms align their magnetic poles so that almost all like poles point in the ________ direction. The groups of atoms with aligned magnetic poles are called magnetic ___________.

A _________ needle is a magnet that is free to _______ until it lines up in the north-south direction. The origin of the terms “________ pole” and “_______ pole” of a magnet come from the direction that a magnetized compass _______ points. The end of the magnet that pointed ________ was called the north pole of the magnet and the end that pointed ________ was called the south pole.

History of Magnetism First magnetic metal found: ___________________ (2500 yrs ago in current Turkey) Greeks called it “Lodestone” or “Magnesia” = _____________________ First compass used: _______________ (in the twelfth century) Chinese sailors used a compass made of ________________

The _________ force depended on the __________ and ___________ of the two magnets and also on the ____________ between them. The model of a magnetic ________ was developed to describe how a magnet exerts magnetic _______.  First, every ________ creates an energy field, called the magnetic ________, in the space around it.  Second, the _________ exerts _____ on any other magnet that is within its range.

Electromagnets = A ________ that is created by _______ current. This type of ______ is called an electromagnet. A single wire wrapped into a coil around a core is called a _______________.

KNOW: The more current would make an electromagnet stronger. 2 ways to increase the current.  apply more ________ = by adding a second battery.  add more _________ = of wire around the nail. The second method works because the ___________ in the electromagnet comes from the total amount of current flowing around the _____. If there is 1 amp of _____ in the wire, each loop of wire adds 1 amp to the total amount that flows around the ______. Ten loops of 1 amp each make _____ total amps flowing around. By adding more turns, the same __________ is used over & over to get stronger _______________.

Wrap the _______ in many turns around the _____ and connect a ________. When current flows in the ______, the nail becomes a _________. To ______ north and south, reverse the connection to the ________, making the current flow the opposite ________.

BY ADDING MORE __________ THE RESISTANCE OF THE COIL IS ALSO INCREASED. _______________ THE RESISTANCE MAKES THE CURRENT A LITTLE ___________ & GENERATES MORE __________. A GOOD ELECTROMAGNET IS A ____________ BETWEEN TOO MUCH RESISTANCE AND HAVING ENOUGH _________ TO GET A STRONG ENOUGH __________. Of course, nothing comes for free.

The magnetic _______ exerted by an electromagnet depends on ____ factors:  The amount of electric ______ in the wire.  CURRENT ↑ then MAGNETIC FORCE ↑  The amount of iron or steel in the electromagnet’s ____________.  METAL ↑ then MAGNETIC FORCE ↑  The number of __________ in the solenoid.  COILS ↑ then MAGNETIC FORCE ↑

Electric motors convert ________ energy into mechanical energy. Permanent magnets and electromagnets can work together to make _________ motors and generators. The secret is in the ability of an electromagnet to ________ from north to south. By changing the __________ of electric current, the electromagnet changes from attract to repel, and spins the ____________.

QUESTION? Why is it necessary to continually reverse the direction of the current flow in the coil of an electric motor? ANSWER: (page ) When the end of the coil move past a pole of the permanent magnet, reversing the current causes the end of the coil to be attracted to the other (next) pole of the permanent magnet.

All electric _________ must have ________ things to work: 1. A rotating element (_________) with magnets. 2. A stationary ___________ that surrounds the rotor. 3. A ______________ that switches the electromagnets from north to south at the right place to keep the rotor spinning. The electromagnet must switch from north to south as each ________ magnet passes by to keep the rotor turning. The switch that makes this happen is called a __________________.

Both electrical _______ and magnetic _________exist between electric charges. Scientists now believe both forces are ______ aspects of _______ force, the electromagnetic _______________. A _________ through a wire creates a magnet. The reverse is also true: If a _________ is moved through a coil of wire, then electric ______________ is created. This _________ is called electromagnetic induction because a moving magnet induces electric ____________ to flow.

MAIN IDEA: _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________.

When a _________ moves into a coil of wire, it induces electric current to flow in the ________. The current ________ if the magnet ________ moving. If the magnet is pulled back _______ again, the current flows in the opposite direction. A changing magnetic ____________ is what makes the electricity flow.

Electromagnetic _____________ enables us to transform mechanical energy (moving magnets) into __________ energy. Any machine that causes magnets to move past wire coils generates electric currents. These machines include giant electric __________ plants and computer ________ drives. Power plants use electromagnetic induction to create _________. A generator is a combination of mechanical and electrical systems that converts _________ energy into electrical ____________.

A power plant ____________ contains a turbine that turns magnets inside loops of _________, generating electricity.

In the top sketch the north pole on the disk induces a south pole in the _________________, causing current to flow one way. When the disk rotates, the ____________ in the coil is reversed, and the electric current generated also reverses. THIS IS ALTERNATING CURRENT (_____)
