Questions about EM properties of ferrous liquids in spherical form

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the electromagnetic properties of ferrous liquids when shaped into spheres. The user, an amateur physicist with a background in meteorology, seeks clarification on how these liquids behave when subjected to an external electrical current, such as that from an electromagnet. Key questions revolve around the forces generated in this scenario and the implications for understanding liquid metal dynamics. The inquiry highlights a blend of physics and practical applications, emphasizing the need for insights into the interaction between liquid metals and electromagnetic fields. Overall, the discussion aims to deepen understanding of the behavior of ferrous liquids in specific electromagnetic contexts.

I am an ameteur physicist (i actually have my degree in meteorology), and i have some questions about the EM properties of liquid metals or ferrous liquids when in spherical form. I understand if you are too busy or if i sound off, but if you do have the time to answer a few questions, it would be greatly appreciated.

more specifically wat if you surrounded the sphere with an electrical current like an electromagnet, what kind of forces are produced?
 

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks

Thread 'Raman Spectroscopy help'

I am attempting to use a Raman TruScan with a 785 nm laser to read a material for identification purposes. The material causes too much fluorescence and doesn’t not produce a good signal. However another lab is able to produce a good signal consistently using the same Raman model and sample material. What would be the reason for the different results between instruments?
