Horse Shoe Magnet 2” /50mm
Key Properties:
-
Shape: Shaped like a horse’s shoe, consisting of two parallel arms connected by a curved base.
-
Size: Each arm of the magnet is about 2 inches in length, making it compact and ideal for laboratory or educational use.
-
Material: Made from iron, steel, or alnico, these materials are magnetized to produce a strong magnetic field.
-
Magnetic Poles: The poles are at the ends of the arms, where the magnetic field is strongest.
-
Magnetic Strength: Typically has a strong magnetic field between the poles, which is useful for attracting ferrous objects or demonstrating basic magnetic properties.
Uses:
-
Educational Purposes: Used in demonstrations to show the behavior of magnetic fields, poles, and forces.
-
Attracting Ferrous Materials: It is effective for attracting iron-based objects like nails, screws, and other metal components.
-
Magnetic Field Studies: Common in experiments designed to study the distribution and strength of magnetic fields.
-
Lifting Small Objects: Often used in magnetic lifting of small metal objects or as part of basic machinery.
