While researching magnetic fields, Marisa finds several online sites that describe a fictitious north monopole that is a magnet with only a north pole. Although it does not exist, the north monopole is used to describe magnetic field lines.

A
The field lines around a magnet point from the south pole to the north pole to show the direction opposite to the magnetic force on the monopole.
B
The field lines around a magnet point from the south pole to the north pole to show the direction of the magnetic force on the monopole.
C
The field lines around a magnet point from the north pole to the south pole to show the direction opposite to the magnetic force on the monopole.
D
The field lines around a magnet point from the north pole to the south pole to show the direction of the magnetic force on the monopole.

Which change can make a generator stronger?

A
decreasing the size of the slip rings
B
increasing the size of the slip rings
C
decreasing the number of coils in the armature
D
increasing the number of coils in the armature

The diagram shows a nail before and after a procedure was done.

Question illustration
A
It was made to conduct electricity, which caused the domains to randomize and the nail to become nonmagnetic.
B
It was rubbed with a magnet, which caused the domains to line up and the nail to become magnetic.
C
It was struck repeatedly, which caused the domains to randomize and the nail to become nonmagnetic.
D
It was heated, which caused the domains to line up and the nail to become magnetic.

What is the purpose of the metal core in an electromagnet?

A
It is magnetized and induces a current in the solenoid to decrease the magnetic field strength.
B
It is magnetized and induces a current in the solenoid to increase the magnetic field strength.
C
It is magnetized by the field of the solenoid and increases the magnetic field strength.
D
It is magnetized by the field of the solenoid and decreases the magnetic field strength.

Trent builds a model electric motor. When he connects a battery to the motor, the motor spins through a half rotation and stops.

A
replacing the battery, because it is not providing current
B
installing new brushes, because they are not making a good connection
C
checking the commutator, because the current is not reversing
D
adding more wire coils in the armature, because the electromagnet is too weak
