PROBLEM: The William Gilbert experiment.
NEEDED: A strong bar magnet, small iron wires that
may be cut from paper clips (if the magnet is quite strong
whole dips may be used).
DO THIS: Place the wires carefully along the mag
net They will stand up at various angles in a regular
pattern.
WHAT IT MEANS: The compass needle “dips” at
various parts of the earth, showing the paths of the mag
netic lines of the earth. The magnetic field of the bar
magnet is similar to that of the earth in this respect, and
the wires take positions on the magnet representing those
of the compass needle on the earth.
Gilbert fashioned a ball of lodestone, a natural mag
net, to represent the earth, and placed iron wires over its
surface. This would make a good Science Fair project
perhaps, but might be difficult. The bar magnet shows it
is a simpler way.
