Wednesday, June 2nd/2011 Magnetism and Electromagnetism IV

Today in class we had to finish pages 35 and 36 if we were not done them, as they were assigned yesterday. We were also supposed to do, problems 6 to 17 in our Magnetism and Electromagnetism booklet which is on page 39.

The next scribe will be whoever wants to be the next scribe.

Wednesday, June 1st/2011 Magnetism and Electromagnetism III

Today in the beginning of class we had our Electronic Fields booklet handed back to us. Proceeding that we read "Forces on Current In Magnetic Fields" which is from pages 23 to 25, actually before that we had corrected the two electromagnet assignments about the 1st and 2nd Right-Hand Rule that were handed to us on Monday. She later gave us the option to pick up a Grade 11 Physics Review workbooklet. After she then gave us the rest of the period to work on our magnetism lab.


The next scribe will be Gabe.

May 25, 2011

Today in class we got a new booklet called Grade 11 Physics Fields: Magnetism and Electromagnetism. We started off the book with a lab.

The lab was about drawing magnetic field lines using 2 magnets and a compass. Both arrows on the compass are magnetized to point to the North/South Poles on Earth. The 2 magnets both have a North/South end on them, and are opposite in charge. We laid the magnets horizontally from each other, both North ends of the compass facing North, and placed the compass in between them and began moving the compass to see where the arrows point to draw the field lines. Next we flipped one of the magnets so both North ends where facing each other and drew the field lines from there.

When we finished the lab, we had to read and do page 26, which was a study guide.
