Device to Verify The Lenz's Law (for high school) (Product Code: SCL239/038) is a balanced rocker carrying two aluminium rings, used to show that an induced current opposes the change that produces it in school physics lessons on electromagnetic induction. A magnet pushed into the closed ring makes the arm swing away, while the slotted ring does not respond at all. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as physics practical equipment for schools.

Set the stand on a level bench, balance the arm on the needle and wait for it to settle. Push one pole of a strong bar magnet quickly into the closed ring: the changing magnetic field induces a current in the ring, and the field of that current repels the magnet, so the arm turns away. Withdraw the magnet and the ring is drawn after it. Repeat with the slotted ring and nothing happens, because the slot breaks the conducting loop and no current can circulate.
That side-by-side comparison lets students reason out Lenz's law for themselves before it is written on the board, and it links naturally to energy conservation and eddy current braking. Move the magnet briskly, keep the room free of draughts, and avoid knocking the arm off its needle between trials. It fits well into an electromagnetic kit for school physics in India alongside coils, magnets and galvanometers.
The Lenz's law rocker is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, which is its OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and builds it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Physics departments, dealers and importers buy it factory-direct, and a quotation, repeat order or replacement tripod needle comes from the maker rather than a middleman — ask us.

Is a magnet included?
No magnet is listed with the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law (for high school). A strong bar magnet works well; the Magnet Set of 4 linked above can be added, or ask us to include a magnet in your quotation.
Why does one ring have a slot?
On the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law, the slot breaks the conducting loop so no induced current can flow round that ring. It acts as a control, proving the closed ring moves because of induced current, not simple attraction.
How big are the rings and the arm?
Each aluminium ring of the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law (for high school) is 25 mm in diameter, and the aluminium rocker arm carrying them has a length in the range of 130 to 180 mm.
Do aluminium rings stick to the magnet?
No. Aluminium is not attracted to a magnet in the ordinary way, so any movement of the closed ring on the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law must come from the current induced in it by the moving magnet.
Who manufactures the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law?
The Device to Verify The Lenz's Law (for high school) is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and repeat orders come directly from the manufacturer.
How should the device be stored?
Before moving or storing the Device to Verify The Lenz's Law, lift the rocker arm off the tripod needle so the pivot is not damaged, and keep the aluminium rings free of dents so the arm stays balanced.
