المفاهيم الأساسية

Magnetic field and filings

Iron filings are sprinkled around it, and the board is tapped gently. The filings arrange themselves in a curved pattern.

Tracing and direction

A compass gives another way to represent the field around a bar magnet.

Circular-coil turns

A circular coil contains several turns carrying current in the same direction. The field due to each turn adds to the others.

A solenoid can Form an electromagnet

The magnet so formed is called an electromagnet.

Force on a conductor

A current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field and can exert a force on a nearby magnet.

Textbook device applications

A current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field experiences a force.

Mains, live and neutral

One wire, usually covered with red insulation, is called the live wire, or positive.

Fuse protection

An electric fuse is an important component of domestic circuits.

أسئلة نموذجية مع نقاط التصحيح

أسئلة بنمط امتحان المجلس من مجموعة تدريبات AI Lessons لهذا الفصل. توضّح نقاط التصحيح ما يبحث عنه المصحّح؛ والإجابات النموذجية الكاملة في التطبيق.

1. Very short answerدرجتان

   A horizontal straight conductor carries current from east to west. Predict the magnetic field circulation when viewed from the east end and from the west end. Explain why the two descriptions differ.

   نقاط التصحيح

   • The circulation is clockwise when viewed from the east end.0.5
   • The circulation is anti-clockwise when viewed from the west end.0.5
   • Opposite viewing directions give opposite descriptions of the same field circulation, without any reversal of current.1

2. Short answer3 درجات

   The north pole of a compass needle is repelled by end X of an unmarked bar magnet and attracted by its other end Y. Identify X and Y, giving the magnetic interaction used in each identification. Why can a compass needle be used for this test?

   نقاط التصحيح

   • Identifies X as the north pole.0.5
   • Explains that like poles repel.0.5
   • Identifies Y as the south pole.0.5
   • Explains that unlike poles attract.0.5
   • States that a compass needle is a small bar magnet.1

3. Long answer5 درجات

   (a) Describe how a compass can be used to trace one field line outside a bar magnet. (2) (b) State the field-line directions outside and inside the magnet, and explain why the complete line is a closed curve. (2) (c) Explain why two such field lines cannot cross. (1)

   نقاط التصحيح

   • Place a compass near the north pole and mark both ends of its needle.0.5
   • Move the compass so that its south pole occupies the previous north-pole position.0.5
   • Repeat the process towards the magnet's south pole.0.5
   • Join the marked positions with a smooth curve.0.5
   • Outside the magnet, field lines run from north to south.0.5
   • Inside the magnet, field lines run from south to north.0.5
   • The internal return path completes the external path, making the field line a closed curve.1
   • A crossing would imply two directions at one point, which a compass needle cannot indicate.1
