    purpose of this lab experiment was to study the magnetic field that surrounds a magnet and to see how the strength of the magnetic field change with distance from a magnet. The experiment was successful in achieving its purpose and in proving the theory of the experiments. In the experiment that we needed to show the magnetic field surrounding a magnet, we used a piece of paper, a magnet, and a compass to show the magnetic field. To view the magnetic field that is surrounding the magnet, we placed

    all other forms of injections for it to power such a large object. An el­ectric motor is all about magnets and magnetism: A motor uses magnets to create motion. Electric motors involve rotating coils of wire which are driven by the magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field on an electric current. They transform electrical energy into mechanical energy (Internet 1). As a simple motor will be created, the design of how to create this can be seen in figure 1.1.2 to justify how simple this is

    earth’s rocks which makes up earth’s magnetic field. The earth’s rocks are three compositional layers which are crust, mantle, and core. “...that the molten outer core is the source for Earth's magnetic field.” (pg.85) This is the main thing for the magnetic field for Earth. By having the magnetic field we fit in the geosphere because that helps us determine north and south. During this I will explain why it is important to fit in with the geosphere by having magnetic field on Earth. There are three

    object with a magnetic field. A magnet appeals to any object containing iron. These objects are considered ferrous objects and may include pieces of iron, cobalt, nickel, and steel. The end of a magnet will always point in either the North or South direction. The end that points north is called the North Pole and the end that points south is called the South Pole. It

    flowing through it, is placed in a magnetic field a force is placed on the wire: this is the motor principle and this is the principle behind the loud speaker. Hello, My name is Michael Trevorrow and you will be learning about the loud speaker and electromagnetism. But first, if you want to understand the loud speaker you have to understand electromagnetism. Well electromagnetism is simply ‘the phenomenon of the interaction of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields’. This will become clearer

    In each sunspot pair in the northern hemisphere the first spot has a north magnetic polarity and the second has a south magnetic polarity while in the southern hemisphere it is the opposite pattern. In sunspot groups the polarity of the sunspots gets increasingly complex (Nicolson 124). The sunspots follow a cycle of eleven years. The number

    the wires produces a magnetic field. The magnet will only move if the magnetic field is strong enough. The wire carrying the electrical current behaves like a magnet. It either attracts or repels the magnet that is above it. If the direction of the magnetic field changes, then the direction of the electrical current changes. Magnetic field is formed in concentric circles around a current-carrying wire, laying the wire flat ensures that the strongest part of the wire’s magnetic field interacts with

    hemispheres. Auroras in the northern hemisphere are called aurora borealis and those in the south hemisphere are called aurora australis. Aurora (Latin for 'dawn') is beautiful and amazing lights which are visible in the dark sky in the poles. It can appear as many different forms, but usually it is a greenish quivering glow near the horizon. In 1621 the term 'aurora' was coined by the French astronomer. More and more observations were done and a concrete

    REMARKS/ ANALYSIS In the 1st part of the experiment, Magnetics fields of Magnets with different orientations were observed. For its first subpart A. Like poles of bar Magnets, the magnetic fields are attracted to their opposite poles, thus it is shown that the magnets repel each other. For the next subpart B. Unlike poles of bar Magnets. The magnetic field lines of the North-pole is attracted to the South-pole. This is why in the figure, it can be seen that the two magnets are seeking each other

    deteriorating the Ozone and causing a gap is the Earth’s magnetic field. This theory is a myth. What many mistake for global warming is simply the Earth’s natural cycle that includes the poles shifting, the increase and decrease of precipitation, and the changes in climate. The magnetic poles of the Earth shift on a changing cycle. When the magnetic poles flip, the needle of the compass points the opposite way creating a new North. The poles flip once about every 200,000 years. Since the rise of the
