      Yes, it is capsulated Inside. And if a ring coil is put Inside the toroidal one, its magnetic field will be toroidal - so each coil will penetrate eachothers magnetic fields.

    Now I understand why toroidal transformers are said to be better for sensitive audio applications, there's virtually no magnetic influence outside that ring, wow.

      It would be good to do the same experiment in the orthogonal plane to the plane in the video. There is a (smaller) magnetic field perpendicular, similar to a normal coil.

    I was expecting you sprinkle the iron fillings outside the loop to demonstrate the magnetic effect immediately outside the coil. The fillings inside the coils exactly aliened with the circular magnetic field in the loop.

      @@rad9693 This has nothing to do with induced current; the current in the coiled wire is direct current. The metal filings get magnetized and line up with the field. Lots of filings outside the coil, but the magnetic field drops off very quickly, look closely though you can still see lines a couple millimeters around the wire holes.

    I'm super curious to compare this field with a tubular ring of same dimensions containing a conductive fluid or plasma carrying the same current as the copper wire does in this apparatus.
    I think its because of the interior ring i love how its producing such a usable geometry

  • @jaysmith12
    @jaysmith12 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do you guys really not get it? This is an inductor and those aren't magnetic lines?
    That's a reflected induced charge in the coil. Those are current vectors. The magnetic field is 90° out of phase and perpendicular toward charge. How is this not obvious?
    There's a magnetic torus inside each coil with centripetal tension tugging the electrical potential toward charge. Yes. Electrical potential is carried toward charge.
    Magnetic fields are perpendicular to electrical fields and they both cannot reciprocate a dipole that is hysterical.

  • @davesunhammer4218
    @davesunhammer4218 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Interesting. At first glance the filings appear to make rings inside the coil. However, they really weave back and forth across each other 2 dimensionally. I'll wager this implies some spiraling effect in 3 dimensions.
    I wonder if you slowy increased voltage would the 2 dimensional pattern come into more focus? maybe just a little less shavings.

    • @paradiselost9946
      @paradiselost9946 ปีที่แล้ว

      i often feel iron filings produce the wrong idea.
      there is a 3d thing... the filings only sit on a plate, after all. interesting to see it in water. some type of transparent fluid with just enough goop to make things visible...
      and with that.. its not really interweaved. its following the path of least resistance. least reluctance, really.
      theres so much magnetic flux in the coil. one filing by itself will saturate, line up, and thats it..
      a dozen will magnetise, produce enough force to make a line of some type... but the rest of the flux just keeps on being flux.
      as you keep adding filings, more flux passes through them rather than the air. (though its still only a thin layer and we dont see the rest of the torus...)
      but always bearing in mind like poles repel, so as the filings magnetise and form lower reluctance path, they also repel from each other. rather than form a solid bar, they have to spread out into a lace structure.
      and on that note, a solid ring inside it would be interesting.
      because theres these strange things about coils...
      how does the conductor (Secondary of a transformer, say) know that there is a field inside the core, if all the flux is in the core and none is getting out?
      i dont see lines of force cutting conductors...

    What if you made a toroidal coil out of wound copper wire. For example, how a guitar string is wound. How would it affect the direction of the magnetic field?

    • @paradiselost9946
      @paradiselost9946 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      no. it would act just like an air core coil, as copper has a permeability much the same as air.
      brass would reduce the inductance. it has a lower permeability than air.
      iron and the other ferrous metals increase inductance by orders of magnitude... really high permeability.

    • @kreynolds1123
      @kreynolds1123 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Suppose you pointed the toroid to the sun with the plane of the toroid at 90 degrees to the sin and plasma composing the solar wind were to pass through the torus, then the protons and electrons interacting with the magnetic field would be deflected to inward or outward. If the protons are deflected inward then electrons would be deflected outward, but there would be no torque to make it rotate.
      If one side of the torus faced the sun with the plane of the torus pointing to the sun, then electrons would be deflected to one side and protons deflected to the other side on the the sun facing side of the torus, and the reverse happens on the back side, non sun facing side of the torus. But the net forces between electron current and proton current balance and thus produce no net forces.
      But maybe because electrons are deflected more because they are lighter, there might be an imbalance of forces and if so, it might cause torque. You'll have to do a deeper analysis.

    Something is fishy in this video. Notice #1: There is two apparent planes in the image. Plane1 is the surface onto which the apparatus is standing ( the table ) . Plane2 is the plexiglass surface. Notice#2: The toroidal coil is positioned on Plane2 . Notice#3: The distance between Plane1 and Plane2 is equivalent to the length of the apparatus legs ( or standoffs ). The fishy thing: Someone took the so much complicated task of enrolling the toroidal coil through each single holes on the plexiglass as well as through the white sheet of paper, ( Plane2 ) taking extreme care not to tear the paper. A surprisingly immaculate job. Yet, the paper is Also Under the 4 standoffs ( Plane1 ). How can you explain a flat sheet of paper existing on two parallel planes distant apart of a few centimetres ?

      pretty simple really, there is a table, then the paper, yes, the paper is sitting on the table, as you can clearly see the coils under the clear Plexiglas, then everything else is above. Ask yourself at 6 seconds in, how can you see the coils under the plexiglas? Easy, the paper is on the table.

      Ozzy3333333 , I get it. Great observation. For some reason I could not grasp the fact that the paper was, indeed, completely under the whole coil. I had this illusion that the paper was right in the middle of the coil, which didn't make any sense in my mind.

    Ask your professor about the basis for a tocomac! Imagine a thick hollow glass toroid containing a ferromercurial/cobalt suspension. Pulse electromagnetic field wound arround the toroid (not a single coil but thousands of individual coils) in sequence. Start slowly & the mixture will center in the toroid. As you accelerate ( increase frequency), that fluid if mixed in correct proportions will become a plasma. Once you approach near relativistic speed look at the corona effect. Then, look at the weight of the non metallic platform this circuit is attached to! Surprise!!!

    You make me pull out my hair. There is no field you are showing, the field is invisible to the human eye, you must measure it with a gauss meter. When you throw iron fillings around magnets, each iron filing becomes magnetized all what you are showing is the relationship between one big magnet and thousands of small magnets not the pattern of a pure magnetic field. That takes more effort, get a gauss meter and measure millimetre by millimetre, just stop this.

    • @vinayaktrivedi9375
      @vinayaktrivedi9375 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      But these do show the field lines as the iron filings lie along the magnetic field direction. Yes the field is an invisible quantity which is ideally represented in a continuous way but for representation purposes this is perfectly fine
