Click the picture above. You will be taken to the Actively Learn site. Click on the "Google" button when you arrive at the "Log in with" page. Complete the "Electromagnetism" assignment.

Read and click through the slideshow to learn about electromagnets.

Adjust the size (gauge) of the wire, the type of wire, the number of wraps of wire, and the voltage of the electric current. Observe any changes to the strength of the magnet as you make adjustments to the different variables.

Check out this video about how electricity creates magnetic fields that interact with magnetic fields of permanent magnets.

Check out this video about a related concept called electromagnetic induction. [Moving magnets next to a coil of wire forces an electric current to flow through the wire.]

Read through the instructions for our upcoming lab to get a better idea of what we will be doing.

Read the article and answer the questions on 1/2 sheet of notebook paper. Make sure your name is on the paper, and place it in the tray on my desk.

Check out how the Large Hadron Particle Collider uses magnets and electricity to study quantum physics.
