Student Experiments in Physics, Kit 2 - Magnetism and Electrostatics (P-BOX)

Student Experiments in Physics, Kit 2 - Magnetism and Electrostatics (P-BOX)

Kit number 2 from the Student Physics Experiments series enables conducting several magnetism and electrostatics experiments, in accordance with the included worksheets contained in the accompanying manual.

Elements of each set are stored in lockable containers with foam inserts and compartments matched to the shapes of the components. This facilitates use and assembly of the set. The container helps organize classroom equipment. The trays fit standard school furniture. The containers have been tested and approved for intensive educational use. They are fully recyclable.

The set includes an instruction manual with worksheets detailing the procedure for each experiment.

Experiments and Activities (Worksheets):

1. Magnetic properties.
2. Magnets exert a force.
3. Lines of magnetic field.
4. Interaction of magnetic forces.
5. Interaction of two magnets
6. Can a magnet levitate?
7. How is a magnet created?
8. Magnetic motor.
9. Earth's magnetic field.
10. Applications of magnetism.
11. Forces between electrified bodies.
12. Electrostatic induction
13. Electrostatic balloon.
14. Electrostatic pendulum / construction of an electroscope.
15. Electrostatic induction

The Student Experiments in Physics series includes seven handy, easy-to-use experimental sets for conducting student experiments in different branches of physics:

• electricity
• magnetism
• electrostatics
• optics
• sound
• heat
• fluid and gas mechanics
• solid mechanics

Each set from the Student Experiments in Physics series enables performing many experiments in a given branch of school physics thanks to its thoughtful composition and well-chosen components.

The set can also be used with measurement sensors (magnetic field, force sensor) and results can be visualized and analyzed on a screen or multimedia whiteboard!
