Floating Fan Model
Product Code : SCL-MF-12478
Quick Answer: The Floating Fan Model is a physics demonstration in which a fan component appears to float while it rotates, showing magnetic levitation and the balance between magnetic force and gravity.
Last updated: October 2026
Key Features
- Demonstrates magnetic levitation through a visible floating effect
- Shows rotational motion through a fan mechanism
- Prompts discussion of magnetic force, gravity and equilibrium
- Gives a qualitative demonstration of levitation and rotation
About This Product
On a dry, level surface, the floating component is positioned as instructed and the model is set running so students can watch the fan hover and turn. Teachers use the observation to introduce equilibrium and the interaction of magnetic forces with gravity, and to support inquiry-based physics activities and supervised exhibitions. Besides buyers across India, the Floating Fan Model can be exported to institutions in Syria, Rwanda, Egypt, Venezuela, Tanzania and Bahrain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What keeps the fan in the air?
Magnetic force acts against gravity, and when the two balance the fan component appears to float. The model is used to introduce equilibrium.
