Abstract
Why does the Earth rotate? At present, several theories on Earth rotation remain hypotheses. Hence, the aim of this study was to obtain experimental evidence of the relationship between the rotational force and magnetic field so that we can use experimental devices to demonstrate the rotation relationship among the planets and the sun. Each permanent magnet rotating under the action of an external force is installed on the shaft of DC motor; each magnetic ball designed to rotate in a magnetic field is placed in the center of a hollow sphere that can float on the water. Using the above setup, the experimental methods and procedures based on this research can be used to observe the rotation behaviour of a permanent magnet in a magnetic field, understand the reason for its rotation, and determine the strength of the rotational force of the permanent magnet in the magnetic field.
