|
What three fundamental conditions must exist before a voltage can be produced by magnetism? |
Conductor, magnetic field, relative motion between the field and the conductor. |
|
|
How is voltage created with magnetism? |
By a conductor, or cunductors moving across magnetic field so as to cut the lines of forceelectrons within the conductor are impelled in one direction or another. |

Current. |
I |
|
In the equation I=E/R, what does each mean? |
I = Intensity of Current (AMPS) E = Difference in Potential (VOLTS) R = Resistance (OHMS) |
