About This Product
The axle is placed on the rails between the poles of the magnet, where it completes the circuit between them. Once a power supply unit is connected, the axle is repelled and rolls along the rails away from the centre of the magnetic field. Export supply of the Apparatus to Show Force on a Conductor in a Magnetic Field can be arranged to laboratories and schools in Chad, Syria, Barbados, Belarus and South Africa.
