NGSS.MS-PS2-3

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. An electric motor is used to change mechanical energy into electrical energy.

• True

• False

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. Moving a wire through a magnetic field creates an electrical current in the wire.

• True

• False

NGSS.HS-PS2-5

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. Before alternating current from a power plant can enter a home, its voltage must be boosted or increased.

• True

• False

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. Paper clips and other objects that contain iron can become permanent magnets.

• True

• False

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. Current passing through an electromagnet is increased from 10 A to 15 A. This decreases the strength of the magnetic field produced by the electromagnet.

• True

• False
