VERIFIED ANSWERS) |ALREADY GRADED A+| ||PROFESSOR
VERIFIED|| ||BRANDNEW!!!||
Force on electron in magnetic field - ANSWER-The force on an
electron moving in a magnetic field will be least when its direction
is the same as the magnetic field direction.
Path of ions in magnetic field - ANSWER-The wider paths are
those of the heavier ions.
Magnetic field and current direction - ANSWER-When current
reverses direction in a wire, the surrounding magnetic field also
reverses direction.
Connection between electricity and magnetism - ANSWER-
Oersted suspected a connection between electricity and
magnetism.
Effect of magnetic field - ANSWER-The effect of a magnetic field
is to exert a force on other moving charges.

Earth's magnetic field navigation - ANSWER-Biologists have
speculated that the Earth's magnetic field helps Migratory Birds,
Bees, Homing Pigeons navigate.
Step-down transformer - ANSWER-Steps down voltage & current.
Self-induction - ANSWER-Voltage will be induced in a loop if the
source of the magnetic field is the coil itself.
Alternating electric field - ANSWER-Induced by the rapid
alternation of a magnetic field.
AC (Alternating Current) - ANSWER-A transformer's operation
depends on change.
MHD generator - ANSWER-Has no moving parts.
Common generator current type - ANSWER-The current is ac
because the induced voltage is ac.

Energy input to a turbine - ANSWER-Steam commonly supplies
energy to a turbine.
Induced current relationship - ANSWER-Both frequencies are the
same.
Discovery of electromagnetic induction - ANSWER-Independently
discovered by physicists Michael Faraday and Joseph Henry.
Tesla's role - ANSWER-Put electromagnetic induction to practical
use.
When two lamps are connected in series to a battery, the
electrical resistance that the battery "senses" is - ANSWER-More
than the resistance of either lamp
When two lamps are connected in parallel to a battery, the
electrical resistance that the battery "senses" is - ANSWER-Less
than the resistance of either lamp
