How do you produce eddy current in magnetic drum?

Eddy currents in a magnetic drum can be produced by rotating the drum in close proximity to a magnetic field. The changing magnetic field induces currents in the metal drum, which in turn creates its own magnetic field that interacts with the original field, causing eddy currents to flow within the drum.

What is magnetic variation at N 333154 and E 1291148?

The magnetic variation at a specific location like N 333154 and E 1291148 is the angular difference between true north and magnetic north. To determine the exact magnetic variation at this coordinates, you would need to refer to a current magnetic variation chart or use a geomagnetic calculator.


What is the magnetic declination for Plymouth Ma?

As of my last update, the magnetic declination for Plymouth, MA, is approximately 14 degrees west. However, this value can change over time due to variations in the Earth's magnetic field. It's advisable to check a reliable source or a magnetic declination calculator for the most current information.
