Electric and Magnetic Interactions Assessment

Front

What happens to a charged particle at rest in a magnetic field?

Back

It is not affected by the field.

Front

What creates a magnetic field?

Back

Moving electric charges.

Front

What is an electric motor?

Back

A device that uses an electric current to turn an axel, transferring electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Front

What is a generator?

Back

A device that transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Front

What generates magnetism?

Back

Moving electrons.

Front

What is the relationship between electricity and magnetism?

Back

Electricity can create a magnetic field, and a changing magnetic field can induce an electric current.

Front

What is static electricity?

Back

Electric charge that is at rest on an object.

Front

What is an electromagnet?

Back

A type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current.

Front

What is the role of electrons in magnetism?

Back

Electrons moving in a conductor create a magnetic field.

Front

What is the difference between a motor and a generator?

Back

A motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, while a generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
