Hand Rule Demonstrator
Product Code : EL-PLE-13175Eduscope India is a leading Hand Rule Demonstrator Quick Answer: Hand Rule Demonstratorlets students predict motion from current direction and magnet polarity, then run the same setup in reverse to show a generator converting motion into current.
This apparatus gives students a clear, hands-on way to connect current, magnetism, and motion in a single device, part of EduScope India's electronic lab instruments India range underPhysics Lab Equipment. It challenges learners to predict the direction of motion from the magnet's polarity and the direction of current flow, turning an abstract electromagnetic rule into something they can watch happen in real time. As electrons flow through the wire, they generate a magnetic field whose strength is directly proportional to the current; when this current-carrying wire sits near the apparatus's horseshoe magnet, the resulting magnetic repulsion sets it in motion, mirroring the working principle of an electric motor. The horseshoe magnet can be removed and repositioned to reverse the poles, letting students see firsthand how flipping the orientation of the magnetic field changes the direction of motion for a given current. Run the same setup in reverse and it teaches the complementary lesson: connect a galvanometer to the apparatus and start the coil swinging, and the motion itself generates a current, illustrating how a generator converts mechanical motion into electricity. The apparatus operates on a low-voltage 3V to 6V DC supply, and a built-in switch triggers a temporary current in the magnetic coil on command, so instructors can start and stop the motion effect precisely.

It is part of EduScope India'sPhysics Lab Equipmentrange. To take electromagnetic induction further, pair this demonstrator with EduScope India'sPrimary and Secondary Coilsset for a closer look at induced currents between coils. For another angle on converting motion into electricity, theHand Held Generatoroffers a complementary, purely mechanical demonstration of the same generator principle.
