What is a device that changes electrical current in a magnetic field into kinetic energy (movement)?
Magnetic Pole
Electric Generator
Electromagnet
Electric Motor
Magnetic Domain
This is when the magnetic domains within a piece of metal (like a nail) are oriented by an electrical current, making a very strong temporary magnet.

When an electron moves from an excited state back to its normal energy level, it creates a disturbance in the magnetic field around it and makes what?
Permanent Magnet
Electromagnetc Wave
Electromagnet
Electric Motor
Dipole
This is a material in which the magnetic domains are naturally aligned and stay that way for a very long time.

Dipole
Because electromagnetic waves travel as both a particle and a wave, this is the "particle" component of an electromagnetic wave.
Proton
Muon
Electron
Photon
Magnetic Pole
This is light that has passed through a filter, and as a result is only oriented along one axis. Helps reduce "glare".
Incandescent Light
Polarized Light
Prism
Fluorescent Light
LED
This is an object that separates visible light into the various colors present in white light.
Incandescent Light
Polarized Light
Prism
Fluorescent Light
LED
This is a representation of an invisible force that acts on materials with domains. It is often represented with lines that imply stronger force as they get closer together.
Strawberry Fields
Electromagnetic Waves
Radiant Energy
Electric Field
Magnetic Field
This is an energy that is most closely tied to the frequency of electromagnetic waves or the momentum of a photon.
