The students will learn about the nature of magnets; classify magnetic and nonmagnetic materials; discover how objects can be magnetized and demagnetized; and understand the differences between a permanent and a temporary magnet. By plotting actual magnetic fields, they will also explore how compasses react to magnetism. The class will also bridge the world between magnetism and electricity as they create an electromagnet, investigate the effects of magnetic forces on electric currents and identify applications of electromagnetism.
Class size - 40 students.
Your students will:
Demonstrate the properties of simple magnetic devices such as the magnetic compass, bar magnet and carrying coil
Learn how magnetic poles are defined and how the general nature of the magnetic field can be displayed by the use of iron filings
Describe the nature of the earth's magnetic field and how it serves as a “field” in the development of various ideas in Physics
