Magnetic needle on a two-part base with a 10 cm diameter

Product Description

A magnetic needle suspended from a base with a support, freely rotating about an axis, with one half in red, mounted on a two-part base with a diameter of 10 cm (above 6.5 cm).

A teaching aid used in science, physics, and geography lessons at school to indicate the direction of the Earth's magnetic field, explain the concept of Earth's magnetic pole, demonstrate the direction of magnetic field lines (of a magnet or conductor), and explain how a compass works.

Two-Part Transparent Plexiglass Base with Engraved World Directions

An additional, enriching element of this teaching aid is a two-part, transparent Plexiglass base with a diameter of 10 cm, in which the directions N-E-S-W have been cut out and the directions NE-SE-SW-NW are marked with notches. The needle with its support is placed in the cutout of this base. Because it is transparent, the entire aid can be placed on drawings, maps, and diagrams.
