Thanks for that. I'm sure you've covered all bases and didn't contradict at all.

Fair enough. Since you have the best knowledge of this particular area. Could you answer this as an exam style 6 mark question....promise i wont copy lol. it is observed when the critical temperature of a superconductor is reached that a small magnet begins to levitate and hovers above the...

so did ours but it really is the effect. No they don't fly off because you have a cradle to stop them turning around (some nails). Sylabus dot point says "perform an investigation to demonstrate magnetic levitation". That's what I answered. But the next one "analyse.....magnet is able to hover...

If you want to demonstrate the meisner effect all you have to show is magnetic levitation i.e. two magnetic fields oppsing each other producing levitation of a magnet. The simplest answer is a cradle with one magnet over another with south to south and north to north. The one on top won't touch...

The term is contradictory. I was in macquarie uni the otherday and even asked a professor. They said that impurities in the superconductor that are not super conducting but are none the less in contact with it get "pinned down" and they start the current when the magnetic field passes through...
