Humor Silly Thought 19 Remember, light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until they speak.
SPI 0807:12.2 Electromagnetism Notes Science The Cause of Magnetism • Atoms and Domains • In materials such as iron, nickel, and cobalt, groups of atoms are • in areas called domains. • The north and south poles in a domain line up and make a • strong magnetic field.
SPI 0807:12.2 Electromagnetism Notes Science • Electromagnetism • Is the interaction between electricity and magnetism. • Electric current produces a magnetic field. • An electromagnet consists of a solenoid wrapped around an iron core. • Turning Electromagnets On and Off: • Unlike permanent magnets, electromagnets can be turned on and off as needed. • Electromagnetic Strength • You can adjust the strength of an electromagnet two ways • 1) Use more electrical current • 2) Use more coils
SPI 0807:12.2 Electromagnetism Notes Science • How do we use electromagnets? • Found in electrical motors and switches • To lift objects • Example: Junkyard crane-magnets • Example: Maglev trains • To propel objects • Example: Railguns as weapons • Example: Railguns as launch platforms • To look inside of people • Example: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
