Key Features
- Conductor and magnet arrangement for inducing eddy currents
- Shows motion slowed by magnetic damping
- Illustrates Lenz's law
- Supports lessons on changing magnetic flux and induction
About This Product
When a conductor experiences changing magnetic flux, circulating currents are induced within it. By Lenz's law their magnetic effects oppose the change that produces them, which shows up as damping or braking of the moving part. The apparatus is set on a stable surface, the conductor and magnet are positioned as instructed, and the motion is started so students can watch it slow and relate this to induction. Besides buyers across India, the Eddy Current Apparatus can be exported to institutions in Rwanda, Vietnam, Solomon Islands, Belize and Peru.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is magnetic damping?
It is the slowing of motion caused by eddy currents induced in a conductor, whose magnetic effects oppose the motion that produces them.
