Electromagnet Notes

The Electromagnet Interactive is an adjustable-size file that displays nicely on smart phones, on tablets such as the iPad, on Chromebooks, and on laptops and desktops. The size of the Interactive can be scaled to fit the device that it is displayed on. The compatibility with smart phones, iPads, other tablets, and Chromebooks make it a perfect tool for use in a 1:1 classroom.

This Interactive is the second of a medley of four simulations designed to lead students towards an understanding of how an electromagnet works. As of this writing (5/9/24), the other simulations are under construction. We will post more information once the simulations are completed.

The Physics Classroom has not prepared any activities for use with this Interactive.

Magnetism and Electromagnetism resources have traditionally been absent from our website for years. We are beginning to remedy this situation and have added resources to our Calculator Pad and Science Reasoning Center sections. You will also find a growing collection of simulations in our Physics Interactives section.
