The video explains the concepts of magnetic, electric, and gravitational fields using simple demonstrations. It shows how iron filings reveal the magnetic field around a magnet, how charged ...

Designer Ariane Spanier crafted a dynamic and dimensional typeface using only refrigerator magnets purchased from a 99-cent store and acrylic paint mixed with iron filings.

Iron filings can be fun to play with, although we don’t think we’ve ever had any this fine. If you prefer your magnetic field visualizations to be higher-tech, we have the answer.

By scattering iron filings into oil-laden water, Arden Warner found the filings selectively join onto the oil. Then it's just a simple matter of using a magnet to sweep the oily iron filings up up.

Iron filings reveal the pattern of a magnet's invisible force field. Saturday, March 20th, was not only Vernal Equinox, but the annual Sun-Earth Day: a NASA-promoted effort around the country to focus ...

Make sure to get fine iron filings specifically meant for science experiments - don't use iron powder meant for other purposes as it may contain impurities. Important Note: When ordering magnets ...

You can see a magnet's magnetic field by scattering tiny iron filings around it. The iron filings form a pattern that reveals the lines of the magnetic field.

Here's a gorgeous photo of iron filings orienting themselves along the magnetic field lines generated by a strong current in a straight wire that has been wound into a coil.

Magnetic field. A bar magnet induces magnetism in pieces of iron, revealing the presence of its magnetic field spreading from one pole to the other. (Image credit: Getty Images) Small filings of ...
