Lorentzs Force
Direction of the Lorentz force Conductors in which current flows in a magnetic field are forced to move. The direction of this force is perpendicular to the current and the magnetic field, respectively. More precisely, we … more

Magnetization of Paramagnetic substance
Magnetism of matter Materials can be divided into three types: ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, and diamagnetic, depending on how they react to an external magnetic field. Ferromagnetic In ferromagnetic materials, each atom acts like a magnet. In ferromagnetic … more
Magnets and electromagnets
What is the difference between a magnet and an electromagnet? Let’s assume there is a small container you can’t see inside. There is a magnetic field around this container that can attract iron. Then, can you … more
Magnetic Force
Magnetic Force The magnetic force acts between two magnetic objects. Gravity only pulls, but magnetic force also has the force to push, including pulling force. When the different poles of the magnet are close, they pull … more
How a CRT TV works
CRT TV CRT TV is an image-receiving device that uses cathode rays. It was widely used as a TV receiver until the mid-2000s. However, it had the disadvantage of being large and heavy. Afterward, it gradually … more
Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction
You can set the movement of the magnet as you wish. Observe the electromotive force generated depending on the position and speed of the magnet. Electromagnetic induction Moving the magnet around the inductor will change the … more
Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction
Electromagnetic induction Moving the magnet around the inductor will change the inductor’s magnetic field, which will cause the current to flow through the inductor. This phenomenon is called electromagnetic induction. The current flowing in the inductor … more
Homopolar Motor
Assuming that the current flowing in the wire is in the X-direction, the magnetic field is in the Y direction. Then, what direction is the electromagnetic force? ‘Homopolar motor’ refers to a motor operated by using … more
