Magnet Myths and Misconceptions

[TinselKoala]

Christ, these people have confused magnitude for direction.  Optical illusion "leads out" massive delusion.

Looks like they aren't the only ones doing that. Funny how iron filings don't show that pinch at the waist, isn't it.

A couple of cool video's.

I can also provide experiment to show this.

EXPERIMENT: "Coriolis Effect"

1: Replicate the "Coriolis Effect" expreriment in the above Video and record your Direction of Spin!
2: Place a LARGE Magnet under your Funnel with a reasonable Gap under the Spout so as to not impede the flow of water but not too far so the Field of the Magnet is too far away.
3: Replicate the "Coriolis Effect" experiment with the control Magnet under your Funnel.
4: Flip your Magnet over and Replicate again.

Result:
You will see the Direction of the "Coriolis Effect" change depending on the Polarity of the Magnet to the Polarity you are on the Earth.

Iron Filings are a VERY Bad control and should not be used! They only are used by amateurs that simply don't know any better!

Reason: it's the same as two wires carrying current in the opposing directions can not lay parallel together! The Spins repel each other. As a result they are repelled from each other! This means the take an alternate path. That's why Iron Filings are So Much Denser on the Poles that in the centre of the Magnet!

Whatever happened to Fay Wray?

I think King Kong took her out...but it was an accident.
