4 S TEEL Accelerates close to gravity Air resistance is only upwards force (negligible)

5 M AGNET

6 Changing Magnetic Field Induced Current

7 T O S UM IT U P The falling magnet induces a current within the tube. By Lenz’s law, the current creates a magnetic field that opposes the field of the falling magnet. The magnet feels a resistive (upward) force, and falls slowly.
