Non-Contact Force Kit Class Set

Class set (25-30 students)

This kit provides sections of various pipes allowing students to experiment with non-contact forces like magnetism. As the magnet is dropped through the pipe the induced electromagnetic field slows the magnet and gives a noticeable difference in time to exit the bottom. Students can make predictions and experiments with different combinations of pipe size and material to get a variety of results.

Each kit includes:

1. PVC pipe 2’ (12)
2. Copper pipe 2’ (set of 2) (12)
3. Aluminum pipe 2’ (set of 3) (12)
4. Steel pipe 2’ (12)
5. Stopwatch (12)
6. Magnets (12)
