Table 1

Table 1 below represents the varying levels of current being generated


from the power supply, in 1 Ampere increments, and the resulting
change in apparent mass when a current-carrying wire is introduced
into a magnetic field. After reaching the neutral point, the negative
current data represents the consequence of reversing the power supply
connections, thus reversing the flow.

Figure 1. The graph above represents the change in apparent mass in a system
where a current-carrying wire is embedded into a magnetic field as a function of
the current being produced by the power supply. This is a linear relationship that
also accounts for a reverse in the connections to the power supply, meaning a
reverse in the direction of the current and thus quantitatively negative values.
