Yes. Conventional current flows from positive to negative :smile:

My favourite fictional character has got to be Jesus. He can walk on water, turn water into wine, and resurrect. :-p

Thanks :woot:

That's what I was thinking, but I was wondering which direction the current would flow.

I don't know thanks :smile:

We're doing that. Would the north pole make a positive current or a negative current first?

Vacuum? What if you were on a planet with no magnetic field?

Maybe they're like physical properties. They just are.

What if it is a horse-shoe magnet? No

I got 7

Each wand has a unique length, core material, and flexibility. I believe it is the core material that give the power.

That won't work if the magnet isn't strong enough.

I came across this problem: Explain how you would determine which was the north pole of a bar magnet, without using any other magnet. I was thinking of using a solenoid, and dropping the magnet in. Then you can determine whether it was a north or south pole by whether the current flows...

I was saying how many people say that, and it is a misconception.

A fan of the Weak Anthropic Principle, I see :wink:
