If you place the North pole of a magnet next to the South pole of another magnet, they will:

Attract

Repel

Do nothing

Shatter

What do the lines around this magnet represent?

North Pole

South Pole

Magnetic Declination

Magnetic Field

As the distance between two magnets increases (they get farther apart), the force between them:

Increases

Decreases

Stays the Same

If you cut a magnet in half, what happens to the poles?

One half gets the North Pole, the other half gets the South Pole

Both halves get only a North Pole

Both halves get only a South Pole

Both halves get a North pole and a South Pole

What will happen when these magnets are brought close together?

They will attract each other.

They will repel each other.

Both magnets will turn to the left

Both magnets will turn to the right

Which of the following is true of a bar magnet?

Its magnetic field is strongest near its center.

It is surrounded by a magnetic field.

The north pole is stronger than the south pole.

The south pole is stronger than the north pole.

An (a) is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current

The picture is an example of an:

Electric circuit

Electromagnet

Electric nail

Electric power cell

The entire region surrounding a magnet is known as the:

Magnetic Domain

Lodestone

A Compass

Magnetic Field

10.

To make this electromagnet stronger you could

use less wire

have fewer wire coils around the nail

have more wire coils around the nail

use a plastic core

11.

A north pole and a south pole will attract.

True

False

12.

What happens when two bar magnets repel each other?

The poles of the magnets pull toward each other.

The poles of the magnets push away from each other.

The centers of the magnets pull toward each other.

The centers o the magnets push away from each other.

13.

Are the magnetic field lines in the picture correct?

Yes, because they point from north to south.

No, because they point from north to south (they're supposed to go the other way).

Yes, because the North pole is on the left in all pictures.

No, because the North pole is on the left in all pictures (it's supposed to be on the right).

What is the shape of a magnetic field around a solenoid?

16.

What is the shape of a magnetic field around a bar magnet?

17.

This is a picture of a simple electromagnet. How can the electromagnet be made stronger?

Add more coils of wire to the nail.

Use a smaller battery.

Reverse the poles of the magnet.

Remove all the coils and the nail.

18.

What is a magnetic field?

purple lines with arrows

area of magnetic force around a magnet

it's like a really big football field

area of a magnet around a magnetic force

19.

The Right Hand Rule relates the variables:
