Analysis

In this experiment entitled “Magnetic Field and Magnetic Force”. The first part of the
experiment was to observe the magnetic fields of permanent magnet. It can be seen that magnetic field
flux line of the like poles don’t meet while unlike poles attracts. Furthermore for two U-magnets in a vise
versa position, the flux lines are going north to south but never intersect at the neutral point. Next has a
same set up in U-magnets but with an iron ring at the center. The flux lines are same in the previews set
up but no flux line at the center of the iron ring.

Second part of the experiment was about magnetic force on current-carrying conductor. On part
2a, the voltage is max and current is constant to 5A and current loop of SF39. The higher the number of
magnets in magnet assembly the magnetic force in grams is higher and the magnetic force in newton
varies so it is ascending. On part2b, magnetic force and current, at same voltage and current loop on
part2a, but with a variable current that increments by .5 every trials. While the magnetic force in grams
and force is both ascending with respect to the current that increments by .5. Part 2c, magnetic force
and length of current loop, max voltage, 2 A while the using different kind of current loop. The longer
the current loop’s length the higher magnetic force in grams and newton will be. On part2d, magnetic
force and orientation of coil, at max voltage, 2 A and a coil. While the angle increment by 10 the
magnetic force in grams and force increases. Also in negative angle, however the magnitude are also
same but it is all in negative values, it shows that it is in opposite direction.

Possible errors are student’s error in instance wrong set up on part 1 will give us different
magnetic flux lines, the magnet assembly may have contact with the current loop that will give us
different output, and coil may not be parallel to the magnet assembly.
Conclusion

In the first part of the experiment, the magnetic flux of the magnet inside the are going from
South to North that we can’t see while around the magnets it is going from north to south. It can be
observed on 1st part by using iron filings as a medium in different set up on part 1. It can be observed
that unlike poles attracts while like poles repels.

Second part of the experiment, the magnetic force in grams and in Newton is observed. In the
part A, while the number of magnets are incremented by 1, starting at 2 magnets, magnetic force in
grams and in Newton increases. On part B, while the current is incrementing by 0.5 the magnetic force
in grams and newton also increases but on 0-1.5 A it is 0, but at 2 A it start to increase until 5A. In part C,
the voltage is max and current is 2 A, the current loop are SF40, SF37, SF39, SF41, SF42 with
corresponding length of 1.2, 2.2, 3.2, 4.2, 6.4, and 8.4 cm respectively the magnetic force in grams and
magnetic force in newton is increasing. On part D, while the angle are incrementing by 10 the magnetic
force is also increasing, same goes with negative angle, it has same magnitude with positive angle, but it
is in opposite direction.

In real life we can use magnetic coil at the transformers. We used transformers to set the
voltage required for a given appliance. For instance we have 220 voltage source here in Philippines, but
our appliances can only have a 10 volts, so the transformer will be used. The charger of your phone has
a transformer so it can minimize the voltage and the controls the current that will flow to the load.
Without it our appliances and phones will be damage.
