Written for a college physics course, this midterm examination deals with electric and magnetic fields. When taking this test, learners answer multiple choice questions, solve problems, and analyze a variety of attractive diagrams....

It is just magnetic. This resource presents the concept of Earth's and another planet's magnetic field and how spacecrafts detect them. Learners study a problem using magnetometers and participate in three experiments to come up with a...

Introduce your class to the idea of magnetic fields around electrical wires with an activity that provides the information about the direction of a magnetic field around a wire carrying an electric current.

Most of these questions are actually not numeric in nature as the title indicates, but they are pertinent to a high school physics curriculum covering magnetic fields. Young scientists must be adept at handling the right hand rule in...

For this magnetism worksheet, students review concepts relating to magnetic fields, transformers, galvanometers, and electric motors. This worksheet has 9 fill in the blank and 11 short answer questions.

In this sunspots and magnetic fields worksheet, students read about the satellite images taken showing 'loopy' patterns from solar gases and the magnetic fields on the sun. Students solve 2 problems including finding the volume of a...

For this satellite synchrony worksheet, learners use a spreadsheet or Least Common Multiples to solve 4 problems related to the satellite orbits, orbital periods and their synchronicity. Students determine when the satellites launched in...

Magnets are a source of amazement for young learners. It seems like magic the way they can attract certain things. This worksheet gives some background on which materials can be attracted to a magnet. Then, learners must circle the words...

In this sun's magnetic field lines worksheet, learners use a photograph taken by the Hinode Satellite that shows the complex magnetic structure of the sun over a sunspot. Student predict the magnetic field lines and draw them on a...

In this magnetism worksheet, students answer ten questions about magnets, their magnetic poles, the magnetic lines of flux and how magnets work.

In this magnetic energy worksheet, students are given the formula to calculate the magnetic energy of an object. They use the formula to solve for the magnetic energy of the Earth, a geotail, the Sun, and a solar prominence given their...

In this magnetic forces and particle motion worksheet, students use the equation for the radius of a spiral to answer 3 questions about charged particle motion.

In this van Allen Radiation Belts activity, students are given the formula for the field line of the Earth's inner magnetic field. Students use this equation to find the polar coordinates of a field line in the van Allen Belts. They also...

This student page lists several steps in teaching observation with an oscilloscope and bar magnets. The students can compare bar magnets with circular magnets on a particle beam . Students will learn more about focusing beams in particle...

In this magnet worksheet, students review what makes up matter, how electromagnets are made, and how compasses work. This worksheet has 6 fill in the blank and 2 short answer questions.

In this chemistry learning exercise, learners complete the table for each element by writing the electron configuration of the element and giving the values of the four quantum numbers. They also create an energy level diagram for their...

An informative physics lesson includes two teacher demonstrations, one on AC currents and the other on DC currents, allowing pupils to take notes while watching. The resource includes questions to assign as homework or...

In this auroras worksheet, students define 11 terms related to space phenomena such as auroras, coronal mass ejections and auroral ovals. Students use a given website to help them define the terms and they write a 500 word essay about...

For this mass spectrometer worksheet, high schoolers read about how a mass spectrometer determines the elements in gases around Earth. Students answer 3 questions and identify the elements in a graph found by a mass spectrometer.

In this plasmasphere worksheet, learners determine how long the plasmasphere takes to rotate around the Earth using two satellite images taken three hours apart.

In this seafloor spreading activity, students find mistakes in statements that are descriptive of seafloor spreading. Students correct the given sentences to make a true statement.

In this history worksheet, young scholars use the questions to discover meaningful science and history connections. The worksheet is meant to be viewed online to access individual answers.
