Horse shoe Magnet

Description

This apparatus demonstrates the magnetic field patterns associated with the different shapes of current carrying conductors. Comprises three conductors, each of different shape/configuration – straight rectangular, circular loop and solenoid all mounted on a plastic base. Each configuration is provided with a pair of 4 mm sockets to connect them to a low voltage DC power source, with output current not exceeding 5A With the included iron filings and 8 magnetic compasses, you can investigate the associated field and flux patterns.

Description

Plastic bobbin with 2, 50 and 500 turns of insulated copper wire and rotatable on vertical axis is mounted on a moulded plastic base, with leveling screws and four terminals, with magnetometer mounted at the center of the bobbin.

Description

Consist of a closed transparent box with a transparent tube through the center. The box contains iron filings and silicon oil. When one or more cylindrical magnets are inserted into the central tube, the filings are attracted and line up along the field lines in all dimensions With Cylindrical Magnet.

This demonstrates the action of electric current on a magnet. A cobalt steel needle with agate bearing supported by pivot is mounted on a plastic base and surrounded by rectangular frame fitted with terminals.
