A) What happens to a copper wire when it is moved across a magnetic field? (1 point)
It is attracted to the negative pole of the magnetic field.
Electric current is induced, but not voltage.
Voltage and electric current are induced.
It is attracted to the positive pole of the magnetic field.
A) Which of the following is required in order for a copper wire to create a magnetic field? (1 point)
A power source such as a battery.
Electrons that are attracted to each other.
Magnets that can help the electrons move.
An ammeter to measure the strength of the current
A) Which of the following is true about electricity and magnetism? (1 point)
The creation of an electric current or magnetic field depends on the movement of electrons.
Magnets can induce electric currents only when using the north pole of the magnet.
The free flow of protons down a copper wire causes an electric current that can create a magnetic
field.
Attractive and repulsive forces between charged particles prevent them from creating electric currents or magnetic fields.
A) Why is an electric current only produced if there is a closed circuit? (1 point)
Without a closed circuit, electrons cannot flow from one point to another.
A closed circuit allows magnets to move back and forth, creating an electric current.
An open circuit causes electrons to escape the wire, stopping the electric current.
With an open circuit, the magnetic field created would cause the current to stop flowing.

the following must they include in their apparatus? (1 point)
A stationary magnet
An open circuit
An ammeter
A battery
