Number and TitleImageDescription
5H10.30 - Magnetic Field Lines (Iron Filings)5h1030magnetic_field_lines_around_a_magnetThis demo shows the magnetic field lines of a magnet on the overhead projector.
5H15.10 - Iron Filings Around a Wire5h1510iron_filings_around_a_wire_2Iron filings are sprinkled around a vertical wire running through plexiglass. The iron filings align themselves with the magnetic...
5H15.40 - Iron Filings Around a Solenoid5h1540iron_filings_around_a_solenoidA solenoid is wound through a peice of plexiglass for use with iron filings on the overhead projector. The iron filings align ...
5H20.10 - Magnets on a Pivot5h2010magnets_on_a_pivotThis demonstration shows that a magnet on a pivot will move in response to another magnet close by. A variation of this is ...
5H30.10 - Magnet and TV5h3010magnet_and_tv_2This demonstration shows what happens when you bring a magnet near a CRT. The magnet bends the electron ...
5H30.15 - Bending an Electron Beam5h3015bending_an_electron_beam_2This demonstration shows that a magnetic field can deflect a beam of moving electrons.
5H30.22 - Magnetic Deflection of Cathode Ray (E/M Tube)5h3022magnetic_deflection_of_cathode_ray_3A beam of electrons is propelled vertically. When a current is sent through the Helmholtz coils, a magnetic ...
5H40.10 - Parallel Wires (Pinching Wires)5h4010This demonstration shows the interaction of current passing through parallel wires. The wires will pinch (parallel current), while the tin foil will spread apart (anti parallel current).
5H40.30 - Jumping Wire5h4030jumping_wireThis demonstration shows the interaction between the moving current in a wire in the presence of a magnetic field.
5H40.71 - Rolling Rod (Ampere's Motor)5h4071This demonstration visually shows the interaction between a magnetic field and a current carrying rod.
5H50.20 - Force on a Current Loop5h5020force_on_a_current_loopThis demonstration shows the force on a current carrying wire loop in a magnetic field.
