Elecromagnetic Field Experiment

Demonstrates the field patterns associated with different shapes / configurations of current carrying conductor – rectangular, circular loop and solenoid, mounted on moulded plastic case. Each configurations consists of 6 turns of 0.6mm copper wire with 4mm safety sockets. Operates on 6V DC, 8A max. Also included are iron filling and a set of 8 magnetic compass of 18mm.

Instructions

Connect the black sockets of the instrument with 4 mm flexible banana plug lead
Move the N pole of the cylindrical magnet into the 20 turns coil. Thre is a deflection in one direction and when it is removed, there is a reflection in the opposite direction.
Now move the S pole of cylindrical magnet, the deflections are in the opposite direction.
The magnitude of the deflections increase as the speed of the moving magnet increases.
There is no deflection when the magnet is stationary inside the coil
Repeat the above experiment with 40 and 80 turns coil
