So you built a magnetometer, now what? High school scientists use their magnetometer made in a previous lesson to map the union of magnetic fields of dipole magnets. They experiment with different alignments and draw conclusions about...

Young scholars visualize the magnetic field of a strong permanent magnet using a compass. The lesson begins with an analogy to the effect of the Earth's magnetic field on a compass. Students see the connection that the compass simply...

This lab was designed to have students map out the flux as function of time for a coil spinning in a magnetic field. From their date they also calculate the electromotive force for each data point they collect. Finally, they graph the...
