Imagine It - Eddy current science

Показать описание
A non-magnetic copper plate falling near a magnet can be slowed to a halt in just inches because of something called eddy currents.

When a magnet moves near a conductor, circulating electrical currents (eddy currents) are created in the conductor. These currents create a magnetic field that opposes the field of the original magnet.

The stronger the magnet the greater the effect. A strong magnet dropped inside a non-magnetic conducting pipe like copper or aluminum will fall very slowly.

Imagination Station, Toledo's hands-on science center, is a vital non-profit organization that is an integral part of Toledo's economic, educational and social landscape. Imagination Station provides a critical layer of science enrichment by serving as an educational partner for teachers, schools and parents. It's with a thoughtful blend of exhibits, experiences, education and excitement that Imagination Station is inspiring future generations of scientists in Northwest Ohio. With more than 250 hands-on exhibits and demonstrations, Imagination Station delivers a multi-sensory experience that's as fun as it is educational.

This video is awesome. I watched so many tutorials and by this video I finally understood what an eddy current is.

Finally understand eddy currents! Got 5 less fingers though but it's worth it!

I've never seen this with flat plates, but I've seen it by dropping a magnet through a copper pipe.

i thought it is moving slove due to magnetic attraction....isnt it ????

And to say that I have to make this kind of model to represent Eddy current in my class. It seems dangerous to me 😣

Don’t talk about it lmao imagine it, why am I dying

The sound quality of the clip is extremely poor and as a result the conversation / comments can not be understood.
