Experiment set ELECTRICS 2

Description

Electrostatics in any humidity

Whereas the experiment set ELECTRICITY 1 allows students to carry out all the fundamental experiments on electric circuits, ELECTRICITY 2 covers the topics of electrostatics, magnetostatics and electromagnetic induction. Thanks to the careful choice of suitable materials and the appropriate design of the components, all the electrostatics experiments can even be carried out when the humidity in the air is very high.

Amazingly distinct magnetic field lines

Specially grained iron filings in conjunction with a suitably designed perspex platform ensure that magnetostatics experiments produced remarkably distinct lines of force which even allow the three-dimensionality of the field to be detected.

Right to the nub of electromagnetic induction

Using the 100-mV range of the AMM 300 analog multimeter, with its calibration capability for setting the zero point in the centre, the experiments introducing students to magnetic induction and AC generators are particularly impressive.

Finding out about the laws of transformers can also be fun with this experiment set, though.
