Description

Faraday's Law Apparatus (Working Model) 3 in 1

Description

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.

Description

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.
