4.3.1 Magnetic Fields and Electromagnetic Induction The Earth’s Shield
3
All charges produce ELECTRIC FIELDS Moving charges produce MAGNETIC FIELDS –PERPENDICULAR to the motion of the charge Magnetic field lines Electromagnetic Induction
4
Making a Magnet Magnetism is a FIELD FORCE No contact required All atoms have “some” natural of magnetism Three strongly magnetic elements IRON, NICKEL, COBALT
5
Magnets produce magnetic fields Moving magnets produce ELECTRIC FIELDS –PERPENDICULAR to motion of the magnet –This causes ELECTRICAL CURRENT to flow Electromagnetic Induction
6
Magnetic Field Lines Rules for field line directions Outside magnet NORTH TO SOUTH Inside magnet SOUTH TO NORTH

N S Determine the direction of the magnetic field lines at each point. Where is the field strongest? Example #1 Field is strongest at point C. BACD
11
Determine the direction of the magnetic field lines at each point. Where is the field strongest? Example #2 Field is strongest at point F. FEGH S N N S
12
The needle of a compass is a small MAGNET The north pole of a compass needle –… is marked with a small “N” or a prominent color –… points toward magnetic SOUTH poles. Compass
13
Determine the direction in which the compass will point. Example #3 S N
14
Convection currents in the outer iron core produce the Earth’s magnetic field The geographic NORTH pole of the Earth acts like the SOUTH pole of a magnet! Earth’s Magnetic Field
15
The Magnetosphere
