MIKE HOLT FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS LATEST UPDATE 2025/2026
when electrons are forced to move thru a conductor the magnetic fields of individual electrons
subtract from one another
T or F - Answers False
the direction of the electromagnetic field around a conductor because of current flow is
determined by the right hand rule as it relates to the electron theory
T or F - Answers false
the field intensity around the conductor carrying current increased current flow and is stronger
the further the distance from the conductor
T or F - Answers false
if a conductor carrying current is next to another conductor carrying current in the opposite
direction the electromagnetic field attempts to push the conductor apart
T or F - Answers True
