Magnetism is a natural force, one that works at a distance. Magnets get their force from magnetic fields created by the atoms within the metal. Magnets are useful for things like turbines we use to ...

Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3. This video show the physics described in the work ...

A team of researchers report a mechanical response across a layered magnetic material tied to changing its electron spin. This response could have important applications in nanodevices requiring ultra ...

The video explains the concepts of magnetic, electric, and gravitational fields using simple demonstrations. It shows how iron filings reveal the magnetic field around a magnet, how charged objects ...

Magnetic tweezers are a versatile single-molecule manipulation technique that uses magnetic fields to apply forces and torques on magnetic particles attached to biological molecules, such as DNA, RNA, ...
