Description

An intermediate lab system to investigate the
magnetic field produced by permanent magnets
and electric currents
The Magnetics System is designed to demonstrate
the basic principles electromagnetic flux lines
(of current carrying conductors), deflection of a
magnetic needle, the magnetic field produced
by a permanent magnet and paramagnetic and
ferromagnetic substances, etc. The Magnetics
System 2 is also suitable for use with an overhead
projector.
Laws and principles investigated:
• Ampère’s Law
• Biot and Savart’s law
• Investigation of Magnetic circuits
• Magnetic field produced by permanent magnets
• Magnetic field produced by a current
• North-south poles of a magnet
• Investigation of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic
substances
List of the experiments detailed in the
instruction manual:
• Magnetic field produced by permanent magnets
• Magnetic poles
• Magnetic field produced by an electric current
in a coil
• Magnetic field produced by an electric current
in a wire
• Magnetic field produced by an electric current in
a solenoid
• Paramagnetic and ferromagnetic substances
