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.
This apparatus spins an electrically charged brass wheel spin, without the aid of a motor.
When the wheel electrified by a voltage source (battery), the slotted brass disc sets up eddy currents throughout the structure.
This electricity is then attracted to 4 strong neodymium magnets, causing the wheel to spin.
For demonstrating that some metals are magnetic whilst others are not and for general Metal Identification’ exercises.
Comprises sixteen discs, 25 mm.
diameter 2 each of Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Brass, Zinc, Nickel, Silver, Bronze, Aluminium and copper.
One of each is stamped with the name of metal.
the other is unmarked.
For investigating the magnetic field associated with a solenoid coil.
Coil size 51 x 92 mm.(diameter x length) approx.,diameter of wire 1.5 mm.
Magnetic field Demo, long solenoid
A former with terminals and engraved circle marked 0 – 180° – 0 figured every 45°, wound with 30 turns of insulated copper wire, complete with a magnetic needle 75 mm long and a pivot for the needle.
