1
link between electricity and magnetism
deals with the electromagnetic force that occurs between electrically charged particles.
electromagnetism
2
the process of generating electric current with a magnetic field.
electromagnetic induction
3
imaginary lines of force
magnetic induction
4
discovered electromagnetic induction
michael faraday
5
describes the magnitude of the electromotive force (emf), or voltage, induced (generated) in a conductor due to electromagnetic induction (changing magnetic fields)
faraday's law
6
device that uses the interacting magnetic fields produced by changing currents
does not convert one energy from to another but rather transforms electric potential and current into higher or lower
transformer
7
voltage conversion
step up and step down transformer
8
a transformer with a turn ratio greater than 1 is a _ because voltage is increased from the primary side to the secondary side
step up transformer
9
when the ratio is less than 1, the transformer is
step down transformer
10
built around a square core of ferromagnetic material
connected by side with laminating sheet
closed-core transformer
11
confines even more of the magnet field lines of primary winding because the secondary is wrapped around it and there are esssentially two closed cores
coil of wire is at the center of laminating sheet
shell type transformer
12
coil of wire is inside the laminating sheet
berry type transformer
13
term used to describe the energy dissipated by resistance in the wire used to wind a coil (nainit ang wire)
copper losses
14
a swirling electrical current that is created in a conducting metal such as copper or steel by moving the metal through a magnetic field or a magnetic field over the metal.
eddy current
15
a lag between input and output in a system upon a change in direction.
nag-iinit ang conductor
hysteresis loss
16
device for storing electrical energy consisting of two conductors in close proximity and insulted from each other.
a two-terminal electrical device that can store energy in the form of an electric charge.
capacitor
17
automatically adjust the voltage needed
has one winding and varies both voltage and current
autotransformer
