| Note: Currently, this experiment was performed the previous week in Phys152, so most of the equipment is simply moved across the hall | |||
| New Galvanometer | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| Bar magnet | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf JJ4 | |
| Red coils (Use slender coils - see image below) | 2 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| Compass | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf JJ4 | |
|
Single pole knife switch |
1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
Wires:
|
5 | Bewkes 231 (Phys 152 Lab) | |
|
100 kΩ resistor mounted on blue resistor holder (Color code: brown, black, yellow) |
1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| The following is set up on the left side of the sink: | |||
| Medium-sized Horseshoe magnet (grayishgreen) |
1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf JJ4 | |
| The following are placed on the instructor's bench for a pre-lab demo: | |||
| Styrofoam bar magnet | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| Yellow plastic hoop | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| The Exit Quiz was removed for Spring 2023. Ask Jeff if this setup is needed! The following are set up on the short bench by the sink for exit testing: | |||
| New Galvanometer | 1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |
| Bar magnets (unknown polarity; ends taped over) |
5 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf JJ4 | |
| Yellow wire coil (should be in box with red coils) |
1 | non-Majors storeroom, shelf P3 | |

Large outer coil; small inner coil (ours are red!); iron core
