thank you so much for your help you have an absloute life saviour by filling in the gaps that i didnt understand! so here is the final conclusion could you tell me if this is correct and/or i could add anything else...(in the process of writing the evaluation!)
'from the above tabular column...
oh i see, now i understand soo the magnetic field strength really had nothing to do with the experiment at all! ok so to improve my experiment i could
do more readings to improve accuracy
investigate about the coils in the balance
anything else?
thats brilliant thank you also, i noticed when i calculated the magnetic field strength by doing force divided by (current x length) i found the following results:
1.78 x 10-3
1.62 x 10-3
1.57 x 10-3
1.49 x 10-3
1.57 x 10-3
1.61 x 10-3
1.57 x 10-3
1.56 x 10-3
why does...
i have a bit of a problem though because to change the balance readings from g into force (N) I've multiplied by 0.01 is this right becuase now i have readings of
8.9 x 10-4
1.62 x 10-3
2.35 x 10-3
2.98 x 10-3
3.92 x 10-3
and I am not sure what sort of scale i can plot these...
[SOLVED] investigating the effect of magnetic force on a current carrying wire
Homework Statement
The aim of this experiment is to investigate the magnetic force of a current-carrying wire. In this experiment we will investigate the effect of current and to do this one shall measure the force...
