Laws of Magnetism
laws of magentism To find out about laws of magnetism you can perform the following simple experiment. Suspend a bar magnet as shown in figure, so that it can freely rotate. Allow it to come to rest. You will notice that it remains in north-south direction. Now bring N pole of..
Oersted's Experiment
current is flowing from A to B above the magnetic needle In 1819, Oersted first discovered the link between magnetism and electric current while lecturing to his students. The following circuit diagram depicts the rotation of a magnetic needle NS which can rotate freely about a vertical axis in a horizontal plane. On completing the ci..
Experiment and Characteristics
anode rays produced using goldsteins experiment The positively charged particles were discovered by E.Goldstien. He modified the discharge tube experiments by using a perforated cathode and after evacuating the tube he applied high voltage across the electrodes. Apart from the usual cathode rays emerging from the perforations, he foun..
Magnetic Field
A magnetic field is defined as a region in which a magnetic force is present. In a magnetic field, the magnetic dipole (two equal and oppositely charged or magnetized poles separated by a distance) experiences a turning force, which tends ..
The Bar Magnet
lines or pattern of the magnetic field Magnetic Field Lines - The compass needle always lies along the direction of the field. The figure below shows the lines or pattern of the field, when the compass needle is placed at several places. These lines do not really, tell us the effect that magnet has on the other. Thes..
The Earth as a Magnet
magnetic field of earth About AD1600, William Gilbert, who was a court physician of Queen Elizabeth of England, performed certain experiments using spherical lodestones. When he placed small, pivoted magnetic needles at different positions on this sphere, he found that their behavior was quite similar ..
The Experiment of Faraday and Henry
experiment of Faraday and Henry Electromagnetic Induction - Faraday and Henry performed lots of experiments to learn about the connection between electricity and magnetism. The results of these experiments have led to the life styles of todays men, who made life easy by using lots of electrical appli..
