1
Refers to the electrons that move through a conductor.
  • electric current
  • electromagnetic induction
2
Process in which electric current is produced from a magnetic field.
  • electromagnetic induction
  • electric generator
3
Converts mechanical energy to electrical energy by applying the principle of electromagnetic induction.
  • electric motor
  • electric generator
4
Uses slip rings that are connected to the ends of the armature that rotates it.
  • AC
  • DC
5
Uses split rings or commutators that are connected to the ends of the armature that rotates it.
  • AC
  • DC
6
Common type of machine that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
  • electric generator
  • electric motor
7
Generated when the motor coil of the wire rotates in an external magnetic field.
  • induced voltage
  • deduced voltage
8
The greater the number of the loops of wire that moves in a magnetic field, the greater the induced voltage.
  • FALSE
  • TRUE
9
the strength of the magnetic field where the same coil of wire moves at constant speed is increased, the amount of induced voltage decreases.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
10
The current is produced in a conductor whenever the conductor moves relative to the magnetic field lines.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
11
Lenz's law states that an induced current is always in such a direction that its own magnetic field acts to oppose the effect that created it.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
12
states that a voltage is induced in a circuit whenever relative motion exists between a conductor and magnetic field
  • Newton’s Law
  • Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction
13
What is the relationship between the speed of the relative motion between the coil and the magnet?
If the speed of the same coil passing through the same magnetic field is increased, the wire will move through the magnetic flux at a faster rate, thus producing large induced voltage.
14
What is the back EMF of the motor if the motor is connected to a 220 V power source. The coil of wires of an electric motor has a resistance of 20, operating at a normal speed with a current of 8.5 A.
  • 40V
  • 50V
15
Electric motor is the reverse of a generator.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
16
In a solenoid, the magnetic flux is equal to the product of the cross-sectional area and the component of magnetic field strength perpendicular to the cross-sectional area
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
17
The greater the number of loops of wire that moves in a magnetic field, the greater is the induced voltage.
  • FALSE
  • TRUE
18
The resistor is automatically switched out when the flow of current is reduced and switched in when the current increases.
  • TRUE
  • FALSE
19
The higher the number of the coiled wire, the greater is the resistance.
  • FALSE
  • TRUE
20
