What could be simpler than the divergence of B equals zero? Or the curl of E equals minus the partial derivative of B with respect to time? Maxwell's equations are the essence of simplicity and they're on par with E=mc^2. What better approach to understanding the motion of a conductor in an...
Yes, 12345guy is right. This behavior is explained by Maxwell's equations. The DC current through the coil is switched on and off so it's essentially an AC current with a DC bias. Take a look at the shape of the waveform. Reverse the current and see if it spins the other way. The oscillating...
