Question 7

 

  1. Sketch a diagram to show the magnetic field around two bar magnets placed parallel to each other with like poles in the same direction.
  2. State ne application of magnets.

Observation

Candidates performance was poor. Few candidates who attempted the performed woefully. Performance was low

The expected answer is:

  1. Diagram of magnetic field around bar magnets
    image

  2. Application of magnets

    • electric motor/generator
    • magnetic compass
    • magnetic recording media
    • television sets/computer monitors
    • Accept any other correct application
