4 Meissner Effect Temperature and Magnetism Place a magnet on warm superconducting disk to show how nothing happens, then remove. Add LN2 to the Styrofoam container holding the super conducting disk. When the boiling stops, the disk is cold. Use the plastic tweezers to place one of the magnets on the disk.  The magnet will float above the disk.

5 Oersted's Effect Magnetic Fields

Turn the compass needle so it is approximately parallel to the wire. Close the switch to send the current through the wire for about 5-10 sec. The compass will align itself with the magnetic field.
