Iron Filings for Magnetic Field Experiments

Iron filings show the shape of a magnet's field when sprinkled on paper above it. They are simply fine shavings of iron or mild steel: file a bar over paper, sieve out the coarse bits, and keep them dry, because fine iron rusts quickly.

Ama-blueprint ahlobene

Lama-blueprint abelana ngolwazi โ€” amasu, izinto noma izimiso

CC0 Isizinda Somphakathi

Le blueprint ikhishwe ngaphansi kwe-CC0. Ukhululekile ukukopisha, ukuguqula, ukusabalalisa, nokusebenzisa ngaphandle kwemvume.

Sekela uMenzi ngokuthenga imikhiqizo nge-Blueprint yabo IKhomishane Yomenzi kumiswe ngabathengisi, noma dala inguqulo entsha yale Blueprint bese uyifaka njengoxhumaniso ku-Blueprint yakho ukuze wabelane ngemali engenayo.
