ELECROMAGNETISM 0.0 / 5 ? PhysicsElectromagnetismGCSEEdexcel Created by: sara.5Created on: 11-04-18 16:02 What happens when a current flows through a wire? It causes a magnetic field 1 of 9 What does direction of the magnetic field depend on? Direction of the current 2 of 9 What happens if you change the direction of the current? The direction of the magnetic field also changes 3 of 9 What doe the strength of the magnetic field depend on? The strength of the current 4 of 9 What is a solenoid? When a wire is made in to coil 5 of 9 Why is the magnetic field weaker outside the solenoid? The fields from side of the coil tends to cancel out the fields from the other side giving a weaker field outside. 6 of 9 What is an Electromagnmet? A coil of wire with current flowing through it. 7 of 9 Where is the magnetic field strongest in a wire? Closer to the wire and gets weaker as you increase distance 8 of 9 How can the magnetic field of an electromagnet be made stronger? Putting a piece of iron inside the coil especially if its a soft iron core. 9 of 9
