Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the topics of magnetism, induction, and magnetic force in the context of experimental physics. The author develops and uses a novel apparatus to examine the intricacies of magnetic induction, which allows him to explore the inductive effects of varying distances and magnetic power. He discovers that the induced magnetism in a piece of iron is inversely proportional to the distance from the magnet and directly proportional to the power of the magnetic force. The book also examines the variation of attractive force between a magnet and a piece of iron, finding that it is directly proportional to the induced force in the iron, and inversely proportional to the distance. The findings provided within this book contribute valuable insights into the nature of magnetic forces and expand upon existing knowledge in the field of experimental physics.
