5H20.20 | levitation magnets | PIRA 500 | |
5H20.20 | levitation magnets | 5H20.20 | Two ring magnets are placed on an upright test tube with like poles facing. |
5H20.20 | levitation of magnetic discs | Er-11 | Two disc magnets are suspended with like poles facing on an inverted test tube. |
5H20.21 | magnetic suspension | Er-10 | Two notched bar magnets are held with like poles facing. |

5H20.30 | inverse square law | PIRA 1000 | |
5H20.30 | inverse square law | 5H20.30 | Same as AJP 31(1),60. |
5H20.30 | inverse square law - magnetism | AJP 41(12),1332 | A balance to measure the repulsion of two bar magnets. See AJP 31(1),60. |
5H20.30 | inverse square law - magnetism | AJP 31(1),60 | A
balance is made out of a meter stick with a magnet on one end facing the
pole of another similar magnet. Adjust the distance between the magnets and
slide the counterbalance along the meter stick until equilibrium is reached. |
5H20.30 | magnetic balance | E-86 | Use a bar magnet brought near a second bar magnet counterweighted and on a knife edge to roughly verify the inverse square law. |
5H20.33 | hanging magnets | E-87 | Hang two magnets
horizontally and parallel. Use the inverse square law to compute the pole
strength from the length of the suspension, the saturation, and mass of the
magnets. |

5H20.35 | inverse square law | 5H20.35 | |
5H20.35 | inverse squared power - magnetism | AJP 51(11),1023 | Three
simple variations of magnets levitating in a glass tube are used to show
a force varying with the inverse of the distance squared. |

inverse seventh of the separation. Diagram, Picture. |
