Product Overview
Magnetic Force on a Current Carrying Wire – 2-in-1 Apparatus for Student Experimentation
This versatile self-contained apparatus is designed for student group experiments, offering two different setups in one unit. It allows for a qualitative investigation of the force acting on a conductor carrying electric current within a uniform magnetic field. The apparatus is perfect for testing the 'hand' rules (right-hand and left-hand rules), making it an excellent tool for understanding electromagnetic principles.
The two-in-one design enables students to perform both the electromagnetic swing and Laplace rail (a 'railgun') experiments, providing hands-on learning opportunities in electromagnetism. The setup includes a U-shaped magnet and requires a DC 3V power source, such as two D-cells in battery holders and connecting wires (not included).
