The goal of this experiment is to investigate quantitatively how the magnetic force that a bar magnet and a current-carrying coil exert on each other depends on the distance between them.

Available equipment: Bar magnet, coil with connecting wires, power supply, digital balance, ring stand, clamp, meter stick, tape

Can you design an experiment with that info.

Answer:

Answer explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

magnetic force of charged particle placed in uniform magnetic field is given by

F = iLB sin theta

where i is current

L is length

B = magnetic field

theta is the angle between L and B

so we can design an experiment with the given apparatus

as we have device for measuring length ( meter stick and scale)

magnitude of magnetic field from bar magnetic using magnetic moments principle

Finally from conducting wires and power, we can measure current i using Ammeter
