we were meant to plan the investigation ourselves today.. and our method actually came from david. thanks to him, we were able to complete the task really quickly and get straight to the written work.
basically.. we connected a conducting string to a transformer using wires. we put the string over a magnet (north pole) and turned the transformer on (DC). we observed that the string went one way. this wouldve been the result of a force.
after this, we turned the magnet around so that the south pole was under the string, and after turning the transformer on, the string went the other way.
using the right-hand palm rule, we proved the reason the force pushed the conductor one way or ther other, since it carried a current in a magnetic field.
haev a look at what was written in book.
You should have tried AC
