On the specification
| Board | Spec | Statement |
|---|---|---|
| AQA GCSE 8463 | 4.7.2.1a | Electromagnetism |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 12.7 | Describe how to show that a current can create a magnetic effect around a long straight conductor, describing the shape of the magnetic field produced and relating the direction of the magnetic field to the direction of the current |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 12.8 | Recall that the strength of the field depends on the size of the current and the distance from the long straight conductor |
| Edexcel GCSE 1PH0 | 12.9 | Explain how inside a solenoid (an example of an electromagnet) the fields from individual coils a add together to form a very strong almost uniform field along the centre of the solenoid b cancel to give a weaker field outside the solenoid |
| OCR GCSE J249 | P4.1e | Describe how to show that a current can create a magnetic effect and describe the directions of the magnetic field around a conducting wire |
| OCR GCSE J249 | P4.1f | Recall that the strength of the field depends on the current and the distance from the conductor |
| OCR GCSE J249 | P4.1g | Explain how solenoid arrangements can enhance the magnetic effect |
For teachers
