TA’s Name Abstract The permeability of free space is an important physical constant when dealing with electromagnetic theory in physics. By carrying out this lab experiment knowledge about procedure to find this physical constant was gained. During this experiment several safety issues as well as various careful measures were taken as group members were dealing with current and sensitive balancing device.
Objectives
Purpose of this experiment was to calculate an experimental value for μ0, the permeability of free space after balancing repulsive magnetic force between two wires with antiparallel currents by utilizing a known gravitational ...
