What is magnetism?
Magnetism is the force of attraction or repulsion of a magnetic material due to the arrangement of its atoms, particularly its electrons.
How do magnets interact with other magnets of like and unlike poles?
Like poles repel each other, while unlike poles attract each other.
What is a magnetic field?
A magnetic field is the region or space around a magnet where the effects of the magnet can be experienced.
What measures the flow of magnetism around a magnet?
Magnetic flux measures the flow of magnetism around a magnet.
What is the unit of magnetic flux?
The unit of magnetic flux is Weber (Wb).
How is magnetic flux density defined?
Magnetic flux density is the magnetic flux per unit area, measured in Tesla (T or Wb/m²).
What does permeability measure?
Permeability measures the ease with which magnetic flux passes through a material.
What creates a magnetic field around a conductor?
When an electric current passes through a wire, a magnetic field is produced around the wire.
What is a solenoid?
A solenoid is a wire looped into a helix or spiral that concentrates magnetic field lines inside the coil.
What is the force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field?
The force F on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by F = BIl, where B is the magnetic field strength, I is the current, and l is the length of the conductor.
What is an electromagnet?
An electromagnet is a temporary magnet that has magnetism only when current is passing through a coil of wire.
What are the applications of electromagnets?
Electromagnets are used to lift iron rods and steel bars, in Maglev trains, and in various electrical devices like bells and loudspeakers.
What is the principle of transformers?
Transformers operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction, transferring energy from one winding to another through a varying magnetic field.
Name two types of transformer losses.
Eddy currents and copper losses.
What does inductive coupling refer to?
Inductive coupling refers to the transfer of energy from one circuit component to another through a shared magnetic field.
What is the role of the laminated iron core in a transformer?
The laminated iron core links the two coils magnetically to help efficiently transfer energy.
