Lenz’s Law is one of those physics tricks that look like magic if you don’t understand what’s happening. [Seth Robinson] was inspired by the way eddy currents cause a cylindrical neodymium magnet to ...

At the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Florida, scientists run a 45-tesla magnet, nearly 1 million times stronger ...

This video explores the science behind a floating globe that appears to defy gravity using magnetic levitation. It explains how magnetic fields and precise balance allow the object to hover and rotate ...
