Current balance / force acting on a current-carrying conductor with an amperemeter

Article No: P2410601

The force acting on a current-carrying conductor loop in a uniform magnetic field (Lorentz force) is measured with a balance. Conductor loops of various sizes are suspended in turn from the balance, and the Lorentz force is determined as a function of the current and magnetic induction. The uniform magnetic field is generated by an electromagnet. The magnetic induction can be varied with the coil current.

Key Features

The use of a mechanic balance is especially suitable for a vivid demonstration of the Lorentz force
Four different wire loops included: Clearer and deeper understanding of all correlations leads to an enhanced learning success
