• ITMO Physicists Discover New Physical Effect

  …There is a relatively simple experiment that can be performed at home. You only need five components: a small metal plate, a regular battery, a magnet, a pair of wires, and a voltmeter. All of these components can be found in any radio kit.  The plate must be connected to the battery, and its end faces – to the voltmeter. The arrow of the measuring device will rem…
