Electromagnetism Quiz

What is a magnetic field?

• A magnetic field is a type of weather phenomenon

• A magnetic field is a type of cooking technique

• A magnetic field is a region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts.

• A magnetic field is a type of musical instrument

Explain electromagnetic induction.

• Electromagnetic induction is the process of creating a magnetic field around a conductor

• Electromagnetic induction is the process of converting light energy into electrical energy

• Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating static electricity

• Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating an electromotive force (emf) or voltage across a conductor by exposing it to a changing magnetic field.

State Faraday's Law of electromagnetic induction.

• The induced emf in a closed circuit is proportional to the resistance of the circuit.

• Faraday's Law states that the induced emf is always negative.

• Electromagnetic induction only occurs in circuits with high current flow.

• The induced emf in a closed circuit is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux through the circuit.

What is Lenz's Law?

• Lenz's Law states that the induced current in a conductor will flow in the same direction as the change in magnetic flux.

• Lenz's Law states that the induced current in a conductor will always be zero.

• Lenz's Law states that the induced current in a conductor will increase the magnetic flux.

• Lenz's Law states that the direction of an induced current in a conductor will be such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that produced it.

Describe the relationship between magnetic fields and electric fields in electromagnetic waves.

• Electric fields and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves are static and do not oscillate.

• Electric fields and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves are in opposite directions.

• Electric fields and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves are parallel to each other.

• Electric fields and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves are perpendicular to each other and oscillate in phase.

How can a magnetic field be created around a current-carrying wire?

• The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is created by the wire being stretched.

• The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is created due to the flow of electrons.

• The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is created by the wire being heated up.

• The magnetic field around a current-carrying wire is created by the wire being coated with a special material.

What is the direction of the induced current in a conductor according to Lenz's Law?

• Same as the change in magnetic field

• Opposite to the change in magnetic field

• Randomly determined

• Dependent on the conductor's color
