Magnetic field Essays

Mercury’s Magnetic Field Raises Interest of Researchers As more time goes on, we’re learning more and more about the world around us. Take Mercury for instance, one of NASA’s favorite subjects. Lately, more and more is being learned about the planet. We know it’s small, hot, and is filled with craters, and that’s just the basics. We also know it has a magnetic field that is significant to the planet. Mercury’s magnetic field is not as strong as Earth’s, but it has its own magnetosphere. Mercury‘s

A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field. It is a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, and attracts or repels other magnets. A permanent magnet is an object made from a material that is magnetized and creates its own persistent magnetic field. Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic). These include iron, nickel, cobalt, some alloys of rare earth

understand the basic foundation of electromagnetism. The field of electromagnetism was only six years old when Henry began teaching at the Albany Academy in New York. Danish scientist Hans Christian Oersted had discovered in 1820 that an electrical current in a wire from a battery caused a nearby compass needle to deflect. The theory has been expanding from that

4.11 Motor A DC motor is an electrical machine which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. A magnetic field is generated by the current carrying conductor and when this system is placed in external magnetic field then the force is exerted which is proportional to the strength of the external magnetic field and to the current in the conductor, then motor will rotate. If the direction of current is reversed then the direction of rotation of motor will also reverse. The speed of DC motor

charged particle is moving through a magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic Lorentz force given by F ⃗=qv ⃗ ×B ⃗ (1) where q is the charge of the particle, v is the velocity of the charge q and B is the magnetic field. In this experiment, an electron

strength of the magnetic field (the electromagnet’s strength) will also increase. This means that the number of paper clips that attach to the electromagnet will increase. Explanation of Hypothesis/background: When a DC (Direct Current) electric current flows through a wire, a magnetic field is created. Wrapping the wire in a coil concentrates and increases the magnetic field, because the additive effect of each turn of the wire. (When a coil of wire is used to create a magnetic field, it is

Cell phones, microwaves, and even refrigerators are part of an average human’s daily life. These three items all use magnets. Magnets are used all the time in one’s normal day. The Earth itself is a magnet! (Blatt and Kendall). Magnets function through the North and South Pole. Each side has a positive and negative that either pushes or pulls depending on the charge it is reacting with. A North Pole (negative) repels another negative, but attracts a South Pole (positive). This is the same for a

studies, all that was known about electricity and magnetism was that there were different ways to generate magnetism. First, there was a special stone that had magnetic properties. Some objects tended to be mysteriously attracted to it. Second, it was known that there were two special minerals that when rubbed together would also gain magnetic powers. In 1600, William Gilbert published his treatise De magnete, Magneticisique Corporibus (On the Magnet). Printed in Latin, the book explained all the

Early measuring instrument for small electric currents consisted of coil of insulated copper wire wound on a circular non-magnetic frame. Working based on the principle of the tangent law of magnetism. Galvanometer works on the principle of conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy. When the current flows in a magnetic torque. Galvanometer has a word called sensitivity of galvanometer is defined as the current in micro ampere required to consume one millimeter

Jordan Pineda Scheibner Physics 008 Is Levitation Science Fiction? When we talk about levitation we are talking about magnetic levitation, a more scientific view of levitation. Levitation is a kind of technology that uses magnetic levitation to propel vehicles with magnets instead of using wheels, axles, and bearings. This technology functions by the use of a repulsive force exerted between to superconductor materials such as magnets making the train suspend in the air. By having the train suspended

either has more effect either in the pot of boiling water or in the bowl of ice, which ever magnet gets the less paper clips attached to it will have the greatest effect. Background A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, and attracts or repels other magnets. Materials/Procedures My Materials were a plastic

Shakti, Chit, and Prana Every act, every thought, every activity involves awareness, do these actions instinctively, unconsciously, and without deliberateness and awareness is consumed in the maintenance of the Self. Perform these acts deliberately and with impeccable Intent and one increases awareness. Shakti, Chit, and Prana are terms that have interconnected meanings; Shakti (aether) is the most subtle or pure of the forces and is the original source of Chit and Prana, while the latter is also

discovered the relation between the two fields while he connected a wire power by battery to a compass and watched the needle move when he turned the battery on in intervals. Ørsted also had a big contribution to chemistry as he produced the first aluminum, rather than the first known “aluminum-iron alloy.” Ørsted is still none today for his famous “Ørsted”s Law.” The Ørsted’s Law states that there is a connection between electricity can create a magnetic field.

and path. The word long means that it is far to walk to this house. The word hard means that it is apparently difficult to walk to this house. The word path means that it is the route he is taking. The quote means that the shell he built and the magnetic field is stopping him from doing a easy task. The final quote is “besides, my own world, in those days, extended only as far as the mailbox besides my front door, i went back to bed.” The keywords are world, far and bed. The word world means that

Introduction to Physics Lab (ZBT1) Electromagnetic Induction Marc Westover C164 ZBT1 Task 2 Professor Taha Mzoughi 03/14/2017 Introduction This experiment describes a physics lab on electromagnetic induction. It will test if coils of looped wire produce an electric current and if the number of coils makes a difference in a reading. The testing of electromagnetic induction goes back to 1831 with experiments conducted by Michael Faraday. His experiment led to one of the “basic laws of electromagnetism

mathematical expressions. Usually, it is possible to calculate the currents and voltages in a circuit by solving a set of equations, the calculations are required to design a safe circuit.and this is one reason why advanced mathematics is so important in the field of electrical engineering. The circuit equations can be determined using Ohm’s Law, which gives the relationship between voltage and current in a resistor (V=IR), and Kirchhoff’s Current and Voltage Laws, which govern the currents entering and exiting

Introduction The purpose of this project is to design and build a functional roller coaster for a marble or, if possible, multiple marbles. The base of the roller coaster must be lesser than 1m x 1m.This roller coaster is run based on conservation of mechanical energy. The scientific concept of force, motion and energy, which we had learnt this year, have been applied into this project. My roller coaster model consist of seven loops, two layer of spiral (horizontal loops) and a funnel at the end

Materials and Methods A frog leg was used for the muscle in the experiments. The skin was removed to expose the gastrocnemius, and the bone was severed just below the achilles tendon. The femur was cut just above the knee, and the tibiofibula was severed just below the knee. Ringer 's solution was applied to the muscle to keep the muscle moist. The procedures were done using a power lab, and a force transducer with a micropositioner. The force transducer was calibrated to give data in Newtons.

Does the type of battery used to create a motor affect the time the motor spins? If the type of battery affects the amount of time the coil spins then the D-battery powered electric motor will spin for the longest period of time. The procedures were to create the motor and find a spot for the motor to spin. You also needed to keep track of the time the motor spinned. When the motor stops spinning record the time on a data table. The independent variable was the type of battery used for the motor
