What are some science sentences using magnetic field?

This high speed train is elevated above the rails with a magnetic field.


What factors affect the voltage produced by a dynamo?

The speed of rotation and the strength of the magnetic field. Small dynamos used on cycles are unregulated and the voltage will continue to rise with speed. Car dynamos are regulated by varying the current in the fied windings, to keep the voltage no higher than 13.8v, regardless of the engine speed.


Are electromagnetic waves characterized by rarefactions and compressions?

No they are caused by changes in magnetic and electrical fields. When a magnetic field changes it causes an electric field that is perpendicular to it. And vice versa a changing electric field causes a perpendicular magnetic field. These changing fields propagate outwards at the speed of light and are what is meant by an electromagnetic wave.


Is it possible for the opposing magnetic field to be strong enough to completely stop an object from falling?

No because the magnetic field induced attracts the falling magnet, creating a force which slows down the magnet. If the magnetic field increased to a certain point where the force acting on the magnet was enough to stop the magnet from falling, gravity would act on the bob, causing the magnet to speed up again until it reaches a happy medium speed (or even a terminal speed if you will). When this happens, a changing magnetic field occurs and an induced current is formed again. This cycle repeats.

Does the moon have an active magnetic field?

To have an active magnetic field you must have a reasonably fast rotation speed, and a molten metal core. The earths moon has neither of these, so the answer is No, the moon doesn't have a magnetic field of any kind.


What is the function of field winding in DC generator?

The motor needs the current and magnetic flux to create motion The magnetic field is created by field winding where as armature carries the current resulting into the rotation of armature


If the earth rotated more slowly would you expect it to have as strong a magnetic field?

No it would probably weaken. The Earth's magnetic field is due to a combination of two factors: Earth's relatively high iron content and Earth's relatively high rotation speed. If you reduced either factor you should expect the magnetic field's strength to be reduced.

What is a magnetic field will be produced at some point in space if the electric field at the point?

As far as the electric field is stationary then no magnetic field. But when electric field is moving at a uniform speed then a magnetic field will be produced. This is what we call Lorentz magnetic field.

What is meant by Slip of an induction motor?

Slip is referred to as the difference between the speed of the rotor and the speed of the rotating magnetic field in the stator of the induction motor. Speed of the rotor=n(1-s) Speed of the rotating magnetic field= f/p


Why does voltage increase with current with separate excitation?

More current in the field coils means a stronger magnetic field for the armature to rotate in. This causes the output voltage for a generator to increase. For a motor, more magnetic field means that the supply voltage can be matched at a slower armature rotation speed, so the motor runs more slowly but can supply more torque.


Is Earths magnetic field widening?

I am not sure what you mean by widening. The Earth's magnetic field is a result of the fact that the Earth has a molten Iron core and the planet is rotating quite rapidly. The strength of the magnetic field in these circumstances is dependent on the speed of rotation. As the Earths rotational speed is slowing (due to the friction of the tides caused by the moon) the Earth's magnetic field is gradually weakening over geological time scales but this is not significant in terms of human time. The other affect of the rotating Iron core on the magnetic field is what is called field inversions. In the same was as the Sun goes through an 11 cycle of activity during which the N and S magnetic poles flip, the Earth's poles also flip about once every 75-100 thousand years. There is some evidence that the Earth's poles are in the process of flipping at the moment and during this process, in the same was that the Sun develops Sun spots, multiple poles appear at various locations round the Earth. This effect could be said to distort (or widen) the Earths magnetic field.
