Physics Education Electromagnetism: Force on a Current Carrying Wire Part 2
In Electromagnetism: Force on a Current Carrying Wire Part 1, I used equipment – an electronic balance, a data logger and bar magnets to investigate the relationship between Magnetic Force and Current. This equipment is available to most schools and therefore this experiment is easy to conduct, however it is not suitable to investigate the relationship between the force and the angle between the magnetic field and the current carrying wire. In this case I was able to perform the experiment with the aid of software.
