· What’s the motor effect?
· "If there’s a magnetic field perpendicular to a current in a wire, the wire moves in a direction perpendicular to the field and the current" (FLHR)
· So what about if we move a wire in a magnetic field? What happens in the wire?

· When we move a wire in a magnetic field, a current is induced in the wire 6.15 01 December 2011 18:08
· 6.15 recall that a voltage is induced in a conductor or a coil when it moves through a magnetic field or when a magnetic field changes through it; also recall the factors which affect the size of the induced voltage

· If you...
· Push the North pole of the magnet into the coil A negative current flow shown by a negative deflection on the ammeter
· Keep the magnet stationary within the coil No current
3. Pull the North pole of the magnet out of the coil A positive current
4. Push the South pole of the magnet into the coil A positive current
5. Push the North pole of the magnet slowly into the coil A smaller negative current
6. Push the North pole of the magnet quickly into the coil A larger negative current
7. Change the coil for one with more turns of wire and push the North pole of the magnet into the coil A larger negative current
8. Push the North pole of a neodymium (strong) magnet into the coil A larger negative current
9. Move the magnet in and out of the coil repeatedly. What sort of current is this? An alternating current 6.15 Plenary answers 16 January 2012
· Explain carefully how you can induce a current in a wire (3 marks)
· State 3 ways you can increase the size of this induced current (3 marks) Answers
· The wire must be perpendicular to a magnetic field
· The wire and magnetic field must move relative to each other – the wire must “cut” through the magnetic field lines/lines of magnetic flux as it moves
· A current is induced in the wire. The induced current is perpendicular to both the field and the motion
· Increase the strength of the magnets
· Increase the speed of the relative motion
· Use a coil of wire instead of a single piece of wire
