Ampere's Law Experiment Concepts

The video tutorial, presented by Will Cost Sayid, a sales engineer at Pasco, guides viewers through the setup and execution of an Ampere's Law experiment using Pasco's kit. The tutorial covers the components included in the kit, such as the Ampere's Law apparatus, wireless sensors, and a zero Gauss chamber. It details the process of connecting the apparatus to a Pasco 850 interface and calibrating the sensors. The video concludes with instructions on conducting the experiment, which involves making a circular motion and recording data using Capstone software.
