E60: Faraday's Law - Galvanometer

 

Purpose: To qualitatively demonstrate that a time-varying magnetic flux induces an emf in a coil.

Description:

 

Observe the current as the magnet is:

(1) inserted into the coil,

(2) held at rest in the coil, and

(3) withdrawn from the coil.

Equipment List: Storage Location: CHEMP 130A
