Philip Harris Westminster Electromagnetics Kit

E8H26357

Product code: E8H26357

Direct Delivery – up to 11 weeks.

A comprehensive kit sufficient for 8 students, containing all of the essential apparatus for a variety of investigations into the important phenomena of electromagnetism.

The kit includes:

  • Special magnets,
  • C-cores,
  • Yokes and armatures for constructing the model motor,
  • Insulated copper wire,
  • Compasses,
  • Iron filings,
  • MES and neon lamps
  • Detailed Teacher's Notes describing the procedures and theoretical background.

The experiments catered for include:

  • General investigation of magnets including attraction, repulsion, and the magnetic meridian
  • Investigation of the magnetic field due to magnets with highly visual activities
  • Investigation of the magnetic field due to electric current, including simple galvanometers, electromagnets and vibrators
  • Forces on currents in magnetic fields including: moving coil ammeter; simple electric motor construction and use; electromagnetic induction- the dynamo
  • Alternating current: transformers and power line
  • Eddy current and damping
  • Force between currents
  • a.c. Resonance; back e.m.f. and inductance

Spare parts available:

  • Mild Steel Yokes/Cradles - B8H26370
  • Shafts - B8H26412
  • Armatures - B8H26369
  • White Cotton Reels - B8R01314
  • Tinned Copper Wire - B8A90929
  • Key Stage 3 Physics - Electricity and Electromagnetism: The magnetic effect of a current, electromagnets, DC motors (principles only).   
  • Key Stage 4 Physics – Forces: Forces and fields: electrostatic, magnetic, gravity.
  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Magnetism and Electromagnetism: Magnetism and electromagnetism.  Exploring the magnetic fields of permanent and induced magnets, and the Earth’s magnetic field, using a compass.  Magnetic effects of currents.
