2. Arago's rotations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arago's_rotations

   They also made experiments upon varying the distance between the copper plate and the magnet, and varying the diameter and thickness of the copper disk. Experiments were made upon various metals, and the torque was found to vary as the conductivity of the metal as far as the latter could be judged after being rolled into the form of plate. Messrs.

3. Oersted's law - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted's_law

   The magnetic field (marked B, indicated by red field lines) around wire carrying an electric current (marked I) Compass and wire apparatus showing Ørsted's experiment (video [1]) In electromagnetism , Ørsted's law , also spelled Oersted's law , is the physical law stating that an electric current induces a magnetic field .

4. Electromagnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnet

   A simple electromagnet consisting of a coil of wire wrapped around an iron core. A core of ferromagnetic material like iron serves to increase the magnetic field created. [1] The strength of the magnetic field generated is proportional to the amount of current through the winding. [1] Magnetic field produced by a solenoid (coil of wire). This ...

6. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

   The Maxwell–Faraday equation (listed as one of Maxwell's equations) describes the fact that a spatially varying (and also possibly time-varying, depending on how a magnetic field varies in time) electric field always accompanies a time-varying magnetic field, while Faraday's law states that emf (electromagnetic work done on a unit charge when ...

7. Magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

   Magnetic levitation can be stabilised using different techniques; here rotation (spin) is used. Magnetic levitation (maglev) or magnetic suspension is a method by which an object is suspended with no support other than magnetic fields. Magnetic force is used to counteract the effects of the gravitational force and any other forces. [2]
