SUBJECT: Torque on a Magnetic Dipole in a Constant Field
NOTE: You must be connected to the Internet the first time you view this simulation, at which point the codebase for all the simulations will be downloaded to your computer. This process make take a few minutes, as the codebase is roughly 9MB in size. Subsequent viewings of the applets will run from your local copy.
DESCRIPTION: This applet simulates the field of a magnetic dipole rotating in a constant magnetic field.
VISUALIZATION: Start Simulation (you must have Java™ J2SE v1.4+ JRE installed. Mac OS X users need the Java3D update.)
