I teach high school physics and I would like to get maximum mileage out of my Lenz's law experiment/demonstration.
I am going to get the students to drop magnets down a long copper tube to calculate the magnetic force using distance, time etc and making a direct calculation using Fnet=...
What I'd also like to be able to do is use this set-up in some way to calculate the magnetic field strength of the magnets.
Can anyone think of a way to achieve this without the addition of a lot of extra equipment?
