A 1912 experiment found that if an electromagnet spins on its long axis, its magnetic field does not rotate along with it. And while the Earth spins, its rotational axis doesn’t quite line up ...

"If the effect is real and scaling behaves the way our equations say, then the possibility becomes real," Chyba told Newsweek ...

This effect occurs when a voltage is applied along a thin conducting sheet of material while a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to its surface. Relatively low electric current The electric ...

But Faraday’s experiments were a resounding failure and a few years later, physicists worked out why. Any movement of a conductor through this magnetic field does indeed produce a force on the ...

Faraday’s Law of Induction describes how an electric current produces a magnetic field and, conversely, how a changing magnetic field generates an electric current in a conductor.

This current is caused by an electric field inside the wire, so we could say that a changing magnetic field produces an electric field. But how do you make a magnetic field? Two ways: First, an ...

The electrical current then generates a force that pushes against the tether, and depending on the orientation of the tether to the magnetic field, the force will either speed up or slow the ...
