Swinging Magnet and Rotating Metal Can Experiment – HSC Physics

 

This is part of the HSC Physics course under the topic Electromagnetic Induction.

HSC Physics Syllabus

  • analyse qualitatively and quantitatively, with reference to energy transfers and transformations, examples of Faraday's Law and Lenz's Law `\varepsilon = -N (∆\phi)/(∆t)`, including but not limited to: (ACSPH081, ACSPH110)

– the generation of an electromotive force (emf) and evidence for Lenz's Law produced by the relative movement between a magnet, straight conductors, metal plates and solenoids

Investigating Electromagnetic Induction

This video explains an electromagnetic induction scenario from the 2024 HSC Physics Exam – Question 36, which involves an oscillating magnet above a free-to-rotate aluminium can.
