Bar Magnet 4” /100mm
Key Properties:
-
Shape: A rectangular bar with a uniform shape, making it easy to handle and manipulate in experiments.
-
Size: The magnet measures 4 inches in length, providing a slightly larger magnetic field than smaller bar magnets, but still compact for various uses.
-
Magnetic Poles: The magnet has a north pole at one end and a south pole at the other. The strength of the magnetic field is concentrated at the poles.
-
Material: Typically made from steel or alnico, which ensures it retains its magnetization and exhibits strong magnetic properties.
-
Magnetic Field: The magnetic field of the bar magnet extends from the north to the south pole, with the field lines strongest at the poles.
Uses:
-
Educational Demonstrations: Used in classrooms to demonstrate the concepts of magnetic poles, magnetic fields, and the interaction between magnets.
-
Scientific Experiments: Often used in experiments for studying magnetic attraction, repulsion, and other physical properties of magnets.
-
Practical Applications: Can be used in simple magnetic devices, such as magnetic tools, holding objects, or testing magnetic properties.
