Experiment set ELECTRICS 4

Description

The Lorentz force

The ELECTRICITY 4 experiment set can show the Lorentz force around a current carrying conductor in a very demonstrative way. Investigations are made into the vector properties and how they depend on the strength of the current and of the magnetic field as well as the angle between the current and the field. The experiment set also allows magnetic field strength to be determined to a very high degree of accuracy.

Coil, conductor boards and base plate

The experiment set consists of a coil 15 cm long and consisting of 950 windings for generating a field, five conductor boards of various lengths and directionality and one base plate. The tracks and the base plate together form a highly sensitive current balance which can very easily be adjusted to equilibrium. A set of compensating weights is also provided.
