Magnet Academy: Mass Spectrometer (Dual Sector)
Mass spectrometers are machines that give scientists a look at the composition and origin of a material by analyzing and quantifying its atoms and molecules. This tutorial shows how a dual sector mass spectrometer works. (Java tutorial)

Magnet Academy: Magnetic Domains
In ferromagnetic materials, smaller groups of atoms band together into areas called domains, in which all the electrons have the same magnetic orientation. That's why you can magnetize them. See how it works in this Java tutorial.

Magnet Academy: Hall Effect
When a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the flow of current, the field causes resistance in the current. This is the Lorentz force at work, and can be observed well in the Hall effect. (Java tutorial)

Magnet Academy: Microwaves
What makes those kernels pop inside your microwave? A whole lot of water interacting with a whole lot of high-frequency electromagnetic waves. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Magnetic Field Around a Wire, I
Whenever current travels through a conductor, a magnetic field is generated. (Java tutorial)

Magnet Academy: Magnetic Shunt
Magnetic shunts are often used to adjust the amount of flux in the magnetic circuits found in most electrical motors. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Magnetic Core Memory
Magnetic core memory was developed in the late 1940s and 1950s, and remained the primary way in which early computers read, wrote and stored data until RAM came along in the 1970s. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Lorentz Force
Learn about the Lorentz force with the help of this tutorial, in which a wire fashioned into a pendulum moves inside a magnetic field. (Java tutorial)

Magnet Academy: Tape Recorder
Two heads - or even three - are better than one when it comes to understanding how tape recorders exploit electromagnetic induction. This is a Java tutorial that explains how tape recorders reproduce sound.
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Magnetic Field of a Solenoid
You can create a stronger, more concentrated magnetic field by taking wire and forming it into a coil called a solenoid. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Rheostat
After discovering the nature of electrical resistance, scientists devised instruments like this one to measure and control it. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Pixii Machine
This "magneto-electric machine" was the first to turn motion into electricity. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Parallel Wires
A pair of parallel wires serves to illustrate a principle that French Scientist Andre-Marie Ampere was the first to comprehend, back in 1820. (Java tutorial)
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
Magnet Academy: Oscillator
Oscillators are a type of circuit found in many types of electronic equipment, including clocks, radios and computers. (Java tutorial)

Serc: Simulating the Effect of Sample Size on Sampling Distribution of the Mean
Using a Java simulation tool, students investigate how sample size is related to the amount of variability one sees in the sampling distribution of the mean. Increasing the sample size decreases the variability. Students are assigned...
