Description

In experiment P3.4.4.3, Thomson’s ring experiment is performed in a vertical configuration using an AC supply. A closed metal ring is placed in the time-varying magnetic field produced by a coil with an iron core. The motion of the ring is explained in terms of the induced current and Lenz’s law.

Components of equipment sets

1	56211 4	U-core with yoke
1	56221	Mains coil, 500 turns
1	56233 4	Metal ring (Thomson's ring experiment)
