Petrit places a magnetic compass next to a wire. He connects the wire to a battery. Once an electric current starts flowing through the wire the compass needle changes direction. How does the electric current in the wire produce this effect?

It generates a magnetic field that affects the compass needle.

It generates a contact force that pulls on the compass needle and causes it to move.

It generates an electric field that affects the electric charges in the compass needle.

At a science museum, Ella finds some stationary bikes with magnets attached to their back wheel. When Ella pedals a bike, the magnets on the wheel rotate through a coil of wire. This produces an electric current that lights up a series of lightbulbs. She then pedals a bike at the same speed, but with weaker magnets on the back wheel. How would pedaling a bike with weaker magnets affect the electric current generated?

It would decrease the electric current generated.

It would increase the electric current generated.

Using a bike with weaker magnets would not affect the electric current generated.

Which statement is true?

As the electric current through a wire increases, the magnetic field around the wire becomes stronger.

As the electric current through a wire increases, the magnetic field around the wire becomes weaker.

As the electric current through a wire increases, the magnetic field around the wire is unaffected.

As the electric current through a wire decreases, the magnetic field around the wire becomes stronger.

Jane is studying electrical forces using two metal paper clips. The paper clips both have equal negative charges and are placed 30 cm away from each other. Jane quadruples the charge on one of the paper clips. The other paper clip’s charge doesn’t change and it is not moved. How does the electric force between the paper clips change?

The electric force is quadrupled.

The electric force is reduced to a fourth of the original force.

The electric force is sixteen times bigger.

The electric force stays the same.

A negatively-charged plastic comb and a negatively-charged rubber balloon are brought closer together. How does the electric force between the comb and balloon change when they are brought closer together?

The electric force does not change.

When Micah takes his socks out of the dryer, he notices they are sticking to his shirt. Before the socks were run through the dryer, they didn’t stick to his shirt. Micah’s father notes that there is an electric force between his shirt and the socks. What could have happened to the socks in the dryer to cause this electric force?

His socks gained a net electric charge.

His socks lost a net electric charge.

The net electric charge of the socks did not change.

Dayana held two magnets near one another. She then changed their positions as shown in the diagram below. How did the magnetic force between the magnets change?

The magnetic force became stronger.

The magnetic force became weaker.

The magnetic force changed from repelling to attracting.

The magnetic force changed from attracting to repelling.

A group of students is studying two magnets, Magnet A and Magnet B. They notice a compass needle will point toward magnet A at a distance of 5 cm. However, at a distance of 7 cm, the compass needle doesn’t move. Magnet B will cause the compass needle to move at both 5 and 7 cm. What conclusion can be drawn?

Magnet B is stronger than Magnet A.

Magnet A is stronger than Magnet B.

Magnet A and Magnet B are of equal strengths.

Alma holds two magnets 10 cm apart. At this distance, it isn’t hard to keep the magnets from moving toward each other. Then, she holds the magnets 8 cm apart and notices that they are much harder to keep apart.

When magnets are moved closer to each other, the magnetic force increases.

When magnets are moved closer to each other, the magnetic force decreases.

When the magnets are moved closer to each other, the magnetic force does not change.

Two positively-charged rubber balls are on a table, rolling toward each other. How does the electric force between the balls change as they get closer together?

The electric force does not change.
