When a charged object is brought near an electroscope the metal in the electroscope becomes:

1. ​Charged

2. The metal leaves now have the same charge and will repel each other.

3. When the charged object is removed, the metal becomes neutral again.

Electroscopes

​Magnetism Basics

​Magnetic field lines are invisible!

The earth is a giant magnet!

​

We can use a compass to find the magnetic north pole of the earth but not the geographic north cause our earth is tilted.

Earth's Magnetic Field

• Keeps us safe from Solar Winds
  - solar winds would destroy our Ozone, knock out electricity and cell service.

• Makes pretty Auroras

Multiple Choice

In magnetic materials, all of the ________ are pointing in the same direction.

• doors

• electrons

• domains

• orbits

Part 4

Electromagnetic Induction - The process of creating an electrical current from magnetism.

Materials that have a magnetic field are Iron, Nickel, and cobalt. These are called Ferromagnets.

Magnets make Electricity!

​To make electricity you need Magnetic Flux
watch the video to see it happen!

• Uses electricity to create a magnet.

• Can be turned on and off

• The right hand rule tells you the direction of the current or magnetic field.

• Has real word applications:

  • Trains

  • Cranes that move metal

  • Generators

  • Anything with a motor

Electromagnetism

Your fingers are the magnetic field.

Your thumb points in the direction of the current.
