Modeling induction with a rotating blower

[ayeaye]

One needs a toy duck, and a hair dryer, to replicate this experiment. I have no hair dryer, so i cannot show it to you, these cost $6 in eBay, i don't know how much rubber ducks cost. When doing this experiment, be careful not to make the hair dryer wet, this is very dangerous.

I'm sorry but, this is the only hair dryer that i have. And a rubber fish, or it's maybe a rubber whale, and my skillet that i filled with water.

In the following video, the hair dryer is directed downwards, and moved from ahead of the toy fish, to the back, at the same time moving downwards towards the water. Finally the toy fish moves ahead.

This may not be that good, just what i could do using the minimal items that i have. And to give an idea of how to do it.

A rubber fish

The biggest problem with that experiment was that it was difficult to make the fish to move straight, it turned and moved side wise too easily. So add a bigger fin keel if possible. To make it to move more straight and show what this experiment is about to show, the movement of an electron in the wire.

It is that on the following figure, that this experiment has to demonstrate. Consider also that when the atom instead of moving towards the wire, rotates towards the wire, then the result should be the same.
