A basic introductory system to study the magnetism produced by various
permanent magnets
The Magnetics System 1 permits the demonstration of the characteristics of
various shaped magnets.
In this system we study basic magnetic flux lines (of various shaped
permanent magnets in 2D and 3D), deflection of a magnetic needle, compasses,
magnetic dipoles, magnetic hysteresis, eddy currents, Earth's magnet, etc.
