4 Investigating Electromagnetic Forces

Objective

➜ ➜ Explain that electric and magnetic (electromagnetic) forces can be

attractive or repulsive, and their size depends on the magnitude of the
charges, currents or magnetic strength involved and on the distances
between the interacting objects.

Vocabulary

• Coil • Electromagnetic field • Magnetic field

• Electric charge • Electromagnetism • Magnetism
• Electric current • Electron • Renewable energy
• Electric field • Force
