Objective
into long metal. The magnetic field will have power to change the pointing of
needle compass.
Materials
2. AAA battery
3. 2 Iron Nails
4. Neodymium Magnet
5. Battery Tray
6. Electric Wire
Set-Up
Setting the basement and arms for holding the nail are the first step. Then,
we put nail between the arms and wrap bare copper around the nail.
We insert the battery in its tray. Then, we connect the electric wire to the
tray. The compass is placed in the middle under the iron nail.
In this experiment, we make our own compass using neodymium magnet on
both side of the iron nail. With strong enough magnetic power and smooth surface
current. By flowing the electricity, it creates magnetic field, which has polarity.
The magnetic field will move the needle compass into other direction toward its
polarity, which will be different from the normal direction due to the difference of
due to some mistakes of the experiments components, which have not been
determined yet. This experiment will demonstrate the modern day and future
generation of the magnetic train. The train is activated from the magnetic field
from the battery and neodymium magnet. This materials create small magnetic
field that will push itself toward the polarity into the copper coil. We have tried
several ways ,but it only moved a bit at the early attempt. Later on, the experiment
fails. We try to adjust the size of magnet and battery. Also, we find out that the
copper should not be covered with either oxidized or enamel. After a few classes,
we waste away the rust and try again, but it doesnt work. Finally, we decide to
change the experiment to Oersted instant due to short period for conducting the
We use copper wire with insulator, so we have to cut it off before we could
use it in the experiment, because the insulator will block the magnetic field.
The marker is used to be the pattern for the coil. We change from long
the experiment. So we try to get rip out of those oxidized cover. We use vinegar to
dissolve the rust and baking soda to neutralize the vinegar. As a result, our copper

The Earth's magnetic field is similar to that of a bar magnet tilted 11 degrees from
the spin axis of the Earth. The Earth's core is hotter than that and therefore not

for 171 magnetic field reversals during the past 71 million years has been reported.
A magnet is what makes a compass point north -- the small magnetic pin in a
compass is suspended so that it can spin freely inside its casing and respond to our
planet's magnetism.
A compass needle aligns itself and points toward the top of Earth's magnetic field,
A compass points north because all magnets have two poles , a north pole and a
south pole, and the north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of
another magnet. (You may have seen this demonstrated by a pair of simple bar
end of a compass magnet is drawn to align with the Earth's magnetic field. Because
the Earth's magnetic North Pole attracts the "north" ends of other magnets, it is
electromagnet is built from coiling the conductive materials around metal rod.
When, we release the current through the wire. The running current-wire will
create the magnetic field and magnetize the iron rod into the temporary magnet.
This magnet can be turned on and off directly from controlling the current.
Result
The compass changes the direction, after the current turns on. It moves left
determined from the side of battery. If we change the interaction side of the coil
wire, the direction of compass will move to opposite side from the first time of
Analysis
From the result, we surely prove the existence of magnetic field from current
inside the copper wire. With the movement of neodymium compass, which should
move towards the polarity of world magnetic field, changes towards other
magnet is able to create through electricity current inside conductor coil around
metal material. This makes electric market, which can be controlled from adjusting
the electricity. We test the magnetic field using compass. The compass normally
will point to the earth magnetic field, but if there is another strong magnetic field

the due date. The electromagnetic train is more complicated and difficult in both
other to understand the experiment carefully and concern about the capability of
