Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
What is meant by the motor effect?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. When a conductor carrying a current is placed in a magnetic field the magnet producing the field and the conductor exert a force on each other. This is called the motor effect.
  2. Students should be able to show that Fleming's left-hand rule represents the relative orientation of the force, the current in the conductor and the magnetic field.
  3. Students should be able to recall the factors that affect the size of the force on the conductor.
  4. For a conductor at right angles to a magnetic field and carrying a current: force = magnetic flux density ? current ? length F = B I l force, F, in newtons, N magnetic flux density, B, in tesla, T current, I, in amperes, A (amp is acceptable for ampere) length, l, in metres, m
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Magnetic field: a region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts. (2)
  • Current: An electric current is a flow of electric charge. (2)
  • motor effect: The motor effect is the term used when a current-carrying wire in the presence of a magnetic field experiences a force. (1)
  • Conductor: A material the can conduct electricity or thermal energy. (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. (HT only) What is meant by the motor effect?
    When a conductor carrying a current is placed in a magnetic field the magnet producing the field and the conductor exert a force on each other. This is called the motor effect.
  2. What factors affect the size of the forces on the conductor?
    The factors that affect the size of the force on the conductor are the current and the strength of the magnetic field.
  3. How is magnetic flux density calculated? Include SI units.
    For a conductor at right angles to a magnetic field and carrying a current: force = magnetic flux density ? current ? length F = B I l force, F, in newtons, N magnetic flux density, B, in tesla, T current, I, in amperes, A (amp is acceptable for ampere) length, l, in metres, m

Starter Activity Differentiation and Challenge question/task
  • Students to copy and complete the keywords.
  • Teacher reveals missing letters; Students correct mistakes;
  • Discuss the scientific meanings of the words.
  • Students to write down the definitions of the most important / new keywords.
  • Discuss the 'Memory Anchor'.
    • What does it show?
    • How does it relate to the what we are learning about today (title)?
Think about PACE – Develop, consolidate and deepen knowledge, skills and understanding
