A magnet is moved in and out of a coil of wire connected to a high-resistance voltmeter. If the number of coils doubles, the induced voltage 

• quadruples
• doubles
• is the same
• halves

A device consisting of a coil that is mechanically rotated in a stationary magnetic field is called

• a transformer
• a motor
• a generator
• a dipole
