Magnetic Field - Magnetic field is a region near a magnetised body where magnetic forces can be detected. In a magnetic field, the magnetic dipole (Two equal and oppositely magnetised poles separated by a distance is referred to as magnetic dipole) experiences..

If a small compass needle is placed at a point near the north pole of a bar magnet, the needle turns round on its pivot and settles in a fixed direction as shown in figure. At other points away from the pole the needle settles tangent to the field lines shown. The magnet exerts a magnetic..

Magnetic field is a region near a magnetised body where magnetic forces can be detected. In a magnetic field, the magnetic dipole (Two equal and oppositely magnetised poles separated by a distance is referred to as magnetic dipole) experiences a turning force, which t..

The radioactive material was kept in a small cavity in a block of lead. The whole apparatus was enclosed in an evacuated vessel as shown here. An electric field was applied. It was observed that the beam is split up into three components. The radiations, which emerged from ..

Electric Charge - The word 'electric' is derived from the Greek word 'elektron' meaning amber. The existence of charges were known when charged particles were produced by rubbing (due to friction) of suitable materials. These facts are demonstrated by simple experiments..

Force Acting on a Current-Carrying Conductor in a Magnetic Field - Oersted's experiment shows that a current carrying wire exerts a force on a magnetic needle and deflects it from its usual north-south position. The reverse must also be true, which was proved by the French scien..

Magnetic Field Lines Due to a Current in a Straight Conductor - We need to understand the pattern of field lines around a straight conductor carrying current and also the direction of these field lines. Here is an experiment to map the magnetic field..

are assumed to be in the plane of the paper. From the above, it is found that an electric dipole placed in uniform electric field experiences a torque which align the dipole parallel to the direction of the electric field..

We need to understand the pattern of field lines around a straight conductor carrying current and also the direction of these field lines. Here is an experiment to map the magnetic field lines. Procedure Observation Inference Arrange a c..
