Term
A lot or a little. If you move a magnet quickly through a lot of coiled wire, you produce ______ _______ of voltage.
Definition
a lot
Term
A lot or a little. If you move a magnet slowly through coiled wire you produce ____ ___________ voltage.
Definition
a little
Term
What did Faraday and Henry discover?
Definition
Electric current could be produced in a wire by moving a magnet in or out of a wire coil.
Term
More or less. It takes _________ work or effort to push a magnet quickly through several coils of wire than to push it slowly through a small number of coils of wire.
Definition
more
Term
Name a machine that produces electric current by rotating a coil within a stationary magnetic field.
Definition

mechanical
Term
A generator converts ______________________ energy into ____________________ energy.
Definition
mechanical
electrical
Term
State Faraday’s Law.
Definition
Voltage in a coil: ↑loops, ↑rate of field changes, ↑voltage induced. Voltage in a coil: ↓loops, ↓rate of field changes, ↓ voltage induced.
Term
A device for increasing or decreasing voltage through electromagnetic induction.
Definition
Transformer
Term
State the Transformer equation.
Definition
(Primary voltage/# primary turns) = (Secondary voltage/#secondary turns)
Term
In a step-up transformer, is conservation of energy true?
Definition
Yes.
Power into Primary = Power out of secondary
P=P
VI=VI
VI=2V(1/2I)
Term
What happens at the critical speed for an electromagnetic wave?
Definition
If electric charges are set into motion at a critical speed, the magnetic field induced re-induces the electric field. The electric and magnetic fields continually regenerate each other.
