b. nickel c. magnetism |
|
Electric fields surrounds any stationary _______.
|
electric charge
|
|
The region of space surrounding a moving charge is a _____.
|
magnetic field
|
|
Magnetic fields surround properly magnetized ________ material.
|
magnetic
|
|
To define a vector field ______, _____, and _______ is needed.
|
a. magnitude
b. strength c. direction |
|
____ is defined as the direction of a magnetic field.
|
B
|
|
Describe what the direction of magnetic field, B, encompasses.
|
B at any location is the direction in which the north pole of a compass needle points at that location.
|
|
How are forensic scientists able to find fingerprints? Describe the relationship between iron power and perspiration and brush.
|
Power iron is put on the surfaces where the fingerprint is, the iron adheres to the oil or liquid from the fingerprint. A brush is used to spread the magnetic pieces.
|
|

|
-south
-north |
|
The difference between true north and geographic north; and true south and geographic south is
|
magnetic declination
|
|
Although the earth has large deposits of iron ore in its surfaces, but its true magnetic field source is the electric current in the
|
liquid part of the earth's core.
|
|
The earth's magnetic field reverses its direction reverses
|
every few million years.
|
|
Birds use the magnetic field lines for
|
migration
|
|
________ are able to align with Earth's magnetic field after they find themselves in _____ environments.
|
