    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    Aha! Thanks! So I need to find an object that behaves like the ping-pong ball as you said, but not only that, but it's also got to be magnetic. I wonder where I'll be able to buy that :) I'll go and think about that, thanks again !

    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    Alright :D Sorry, I had the feeling I was getting on your nerves there. I'm thinking out loud here: To get that "bubble" mechanic, I will need a rather "dense" liquid, maybe honey or something. I will probably encounter a problem; there is no force that will pull said bubble up, gravitation...

    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    Yes, There was a magnet outside of the tube. The magnet moved up in a straight line, thus it went against the gravitational force. The tube was around 50 cm/ 20 inch long, with a circumference of around 5 cm/ 2 inch . Also noteworthy: the speed was constant, so no acceleration at all, even in...

    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    Hey! First of all, thank you for answering! Second of all; no, I was not able to see the inside. Do you have any idea for a program I can use to send a sketch? Again, thanks a lot for helping me out here! :)

    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    And as the magnet on the inside is pushed up, and is "connected" with the magnet on the outside, he takes the magnet on the outside with him.

    A question regarding an experiment with a magnet and a tube

    1. So, during one of my classes, the teacher showed us a small experiment, and asked us to explain how it works. The experimented consisted of a tube, closed on both ends, and attached to said tube is what I think is a magnet. Now, everytime he rotated the tube, the magnet rised to the top with...
