1.

A student carries out an experiment to see the effect of a magnetic field on a wire carrying a current. The wire moves upwards as shown.

What should the student do to make the wire move downwards?

a)

change the direction of the current

b)

move the poles of the magnet closer together

c)

send a smaller current through the wire

d)

use a stronger magnet

2.

A current-carrying coil in a magnetic field experiences a turning effect.

How can the turning effect be increased?

a)

increase the number of turns on the coil

b)

reduce the size of the current

c)

reverse the direction of the magnetic field

d)

use thinner wire for the coil

3.

The diagram shows a simple DC electric motor which is rotating.

Which change will make the motor rotate more quickly?

a)

reversing the polarity of the magnets

b)

reversing the battery

c)

removing the magnets

d)

using more powerful magnets

4.

A simple DC electric motor is fitted with a coil that rotates in a magnetic field. A commutator connects the power supply to the coil.

What is the purpose of the commutator?

a)

It converts AC into DC in the coil.

b)

It prevents the current from becoming too great, because the coil has a low resistance

c)

It reverses the direction of the current in the coil after every 180° rotation of the coil

d)

It switches the current off momentarily after every 90° rotation of the coil

5.

The diagram shows a current-carrying wire placed between two magnetic poles. The current is in the direction shown.

What is the direction of the force on the wire?

a)

towards the bottom of the page

b)

towards the top of the page

c)

towards the left-hand side of the page

d)

towards the right-hand side of the page

6.

WHAT IS BACK EMF?

a)

THE VOLTAGE OPPOSES THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE

b)

THE VOLTAGE DOES NOT OPPOSE THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE

c)

SUPPLY VOLTAGE

7.

Which of the following is not a component of a BLDC motor?
