Study of the effect of electromagnetic damping force on a magnet oscillating near a non-ferromagnetic conducting plate
Abstract
We have designed an experiment that involves studying the effects of a conducting plate on the motion of an oscillating disc magnet. We have employed the video analysis method by Tracker software to investigate the variation of electromagnetic damping coefficient with distance between the plate and the magnet. This experiment can indeed serve as a valuable educational tool for undergraduate students, covering topics such as damped oscillation, electromagnetic damping, Lenz's law, and eddy currents.
