About Apparatus To Show On Conductor In A Magnetic Field

Comprising a strong U-shaped magnet and a pair of brass rails with 4 mm socket terminals. A brass axle with plastic discs is free to roll along the rails and completes the electrical contact between them. When the axle is placed on the rails between the poles of the magnets, and power supply unit is connected, the axle is repelled and rolls along the rails away from the center of magnetic field. Dimensions 175x60x58 mm.

Reliable Demonstration of Motor Principle

With a strong metal frame, insulated stand, and heavy-duty base, this apparatus offers stable and safe demonstrations of the motor effectthe force experienced by a conductor in a magnetic field. Its manual operation and visual display make it suitable for qualitative investigation in classrooms or laboratories.

Versatile Use in Physics Education

The apparatus is designed for use in secondary schools, colleges, and universities. It provides hands-on experience for students to observe fundamental electromagnetic phenomena using a single copper conductor and removable permanent magnets. The device is suitable for both DC and low voltage AC demonstrations.

Easy to Operate and Durable

Manual insertion and removal of the copper rod and magnets ensure ease of use and clear demonstration. The painted metal or sturdy plastic construction enhances durability, while the insulated stand ensures user safety during operationan excellent addition to any educational lab setup.

FAQs of Apparatus To Show On Conductor In A Magnetic Field:

Q: How does the Apparatus to Show Force on a Conductor in a Magnetic Field work?

A: This device demonstrates the principle that a current-carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field experiences a force (the motor effect). By manually inserting a copper rod and applying a current (06V DC/AC, power supply not included), students can visually observe the movement resulting from the interaction between the magnetic field of the bar magnets and the electric current.

Q: What educational levels is this apparatus suitable for?

A: The apparatus is designed for use in physics laboratories at schools, colleges, and universities. Its qualitative, visual demonstration makes it an effective teaching aid for both introductory and advanced studies of electromagnetism.

Q: What materials are used in the construction of the apparatus?

A: The apparatus features a heavy-duty plastic or painted metal base for stability, a copper rod as the conductor, removable bar magnets, a metal frame, and a plastic or insulated stand for safety during demonstrations.

Q: What accessories are included with the apparatus?

A: The package includes only the main apparatus (conductor, magnet holders, base stand, connectors, and bar magnets). Power supply and connecting leads are not providedthey must be sourced separately according to your laboratory setup.

Q: How should the apparatus be set up and operated?

A: Place the apparatus on a flat surface, insert the copper rod into the holders, and position the bar magnets. Connect the conductor to a suitable low-voltage DC or AC power supply (up to 6V). Activate the current and observe the resulting movement or deflection to study the force on the conductor in the magnetic field.

Q: When and where can this apparatus be used effectively?

A: It can be used during physics lessons or laboratory sessions focusing on electricity and magnetism. The apparatus is portable and suited for instructional demonstrations in classrooms, labs, or outreach events at educational institutions.

Q: What are the benefits of using this apparatus for teaching?

A: The apparatus provides clear, hands-on demonstration of electromagnetic concepts, making abstract physics principles more tangible. Its visual, qualitative approach aids student understanding, engagement, and retention of the motor effect and the relationship between current, magnetic fields, and force.
