A closer look
What you can do with Electromagnetism Lab
Electromagnetism Lab makes the invisible visible — drop charges, magnets, wires and coils onto a 3D bench and a live engine draws the fields they create and the forces they exert.
Build the bench, watch the fields appear
Place charges, dipoles, magnets, coils, wires and circuit parts and a live engine renders their electric and magnetic fields in real time as you move them.
- 40+ pieces of apparatus — charges, magnets, coils, wires, circuits
- Live field engine updates as you drag
- Build electrostatic and magnetic setups alike
- Orbit and inspect the whole bench in 3D
See fields, potentials and forces
Visualise electric and magnetic field lines, equipotential surfaces and flux — then watch charged particles trace their paths through the fields.
- Electric and magnetic field-line visualisation
- Equipotentials and flux
- Charged-particle trajectories — velocity selector, cyclotron, mass spectrometer
- Field probes, an oscilloscope and quantitative readouts
