Day 17 - Worksheet C
Today you are to answer the 10 questions in Worksheet C. While you are allowed to discuss the questions and answers with your peers, this is your final review prior to tomorrow's exam; make sure you can independently answer all 10 questions by the end of the bell!
Once you have completed that review, work on writing up your EDP report. You will also have time after the test tomorrow to finish writing up your EDP report.
- coil
- a layered loop of conductive material (such as copper); current through this loop will produce a magnetic field
- commutator
- a cylinder with a break in it such that as it spins it keeps breaking the circuit for a moment to allow a reversal of current
- current
- in electronics, it is the movement of electrons through a circuit; this movement can be direct (flow) or alternating (vibration)
- dynamo
- a generator that converts movement (mechanical energy) into electricity (electrical energy)
- electromagnetism
- the physics invovled with the flow of electrons and their magnetic fields
- generator
- in engineering, a generator is any device that outputs energy in a specific form (often electricity)
- magnetic field
- the accumulation of force from millions of electrons aligned in the same direction, making the substance behave like an ionic element
