Understanding Magnet Behavior: Why Magnets Slow Down in Copper or Aluminum Tubes

The phenomenon of magnets falling slowly through copper or aluminum tubes is explained by Lenz's Law. When a magnet moves through a non-magnetic, conductive tube, it induces eddy currents in the metal. These currents generate their own magnetic field, which opposes the magnet's motion, causing it to decelerate. This fascinating property is often used in science fair projects and educational demonstrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where to buy magnet rods? You can purchase high-quality magnet rods at FIRST4MAGNETS®, where a wide range of sizes and materials are available.
  • Why does a magnet fall slowly through a copper tube? The opposing magnetic field generated by induced eddy currents slows the magnet’s descent, as described by Lenz’s Law.
  • Can I use cylindrical rod magnets in magnetic separation? Yes, specialised stainless steel magnetic rods are designed for this purpose.
