    The magnet was made of 18 turns of bare copper wire (insulated wire had not yet been invented). [ 1 ] William Sturgeon ( / ˈ s t ɜːr dʒ ə n / ; 22 May 1783 – 4 December 1850) was an English electrical engineer and inventor who made the first electromagnet and the first practical electric motor .

  3. Magnetix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetix

    The bars with magnets at each end are 27 mm (1.1 in) long, or 68 mm (2.7 in), or 53 mm (2.1 in) and flexible, or short rigid curves. Panel shapes include two types of interlocking triangles, interlockable squares, and circle or disks. The triangles and squares identify the North-South polarity of one of their embedded magnets.

  4. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet's magnetic moment (also called magnetic dipole moment and usually denoted μ) is a vector that characterizes the magnet's overall magnetic properties. For a bar magnet, the direction of the magnetic moment points from the magnet's south pole to its north pole, [ 15 ] and the magnitude relates to how strong and how far apart these poles ...

  7. Simple Magnetic Overunity Toy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Magnetic_Overunity_Toy

    The SMOT consists of a non-magnetic inclined plane, a series of permanent magnets, a steel ball and a non-magnetic track (e.g. aluminium). Some versions have a pair of long bar magnets in place of the series of permanent magnets. The inclined plane has a very low grade, but still enough to provide a gain in height.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_sail

    Magnetic sail animation. A magnetic sail is a proposed method of spacecraft propulsion where an onboard magnetic field source interacts with a plasma wind (e.g., the solar wind) to form an artificial magnetosphere (similar to Earth's magnetosphere) that acts as a sail, transferring force from the wind to the spacecraft requiring little to no propellant as detailed for each proposed magnetic ...
