Floating Magnet Set

Description

To demonstrate that when a current is passed through a conductor in a magnetic field, it is subjected to attraction or repulsion depending upon the direction of current in it. The apparatus consists of a plastic base 160 x 140 mm on which two contact pillars are mounted. Each pillar is provided with an external circuit. A balanced beam is supported by the pillars on two bearings which form the fulcrum. Two screwed masses are provided in the beam system, one moving vertically for the adjustment of sensitivity and the other moving horizontally for the adjustment of the equilibrium position, when no current is flowing. Scale marked 0 to 75 x 1 mm, rider of 1 gm. weight with instruction manual.

For ordinary magnets, iron bars, strips etc. Consists of a 250 mm long solenoid wound with insulated copper wire and mounted on a base, with switch and 4mm terminals. Operating voltage is 12 V A.C. or D.C. At 6A max.

Description

Comprising iron U-shaped core of circular section, with armature and carrying hook. Wounded with insulated copper wire and provided with connectors for use on 4-6 volts D.C.

Description

A wooden table supports a plastic ring wound with three coils of 5, 10 and 20 turns of insulated copper wire, connected to terminals on the base.
