Let us play with ring magnets and make a unique toy.
You will need ring magnets, spoke and other odd things.
The magnet easily sticks to the spoke.
Insert a plastic bead, card fan.
Release the ring magnet from the top.
The magnet will rotate and slowly come down.
This will vibrate the lower end of the spoke.
This will result in the rotation of the card fan.
Repeat the experiment with a Newton’s Color Disc and a piece of straw.
The straw will just hang in the air because of the spinning. This work was supported by IUCAA and Tata Trust.
