[2014-12-04 01:28:53 UTC] are you at university or some shit [2014-12-04 01:28:56 UTC] I thought you were like 12 [2014-12-04 01:30:07 UTC] Either way, when you look at magnetic fields in wires you will have one rotating in the direction indi fuck it I don't know what I'm saying [2014-12-04 01:30:21 UTC] Best of luck, wikipedia is pretty poor for electromag, too many showoffs [2014-12-04 02:14:34 UTC] well unfortunately it seems like when you google magnet into copper tube, there's hardly anything that actually describes in detail with maths about what's going on [2014-12-04 02:16:19 UTC] i know it creates a mangetic field going upwards, but do magnets like to travel along magnetic field lines? [2014-12-04 02:17:48 UTC] like apparently this opposing magnetic field causes the magnet to slow down, but WHY? [2014-12-04 02:18:47 UTC] well i suppose since there's no formula in my book about this we can just assume she won't ask it on the exam, but still as you can see, I have a very positive attitude towards learning :happy:
