Opus 5.5 builds an interactive Faraday's law simulation

My physics teacher spent a whole week on Faraday's law. This simulation explains it in one line. "Nothing changes, so nothing is induced." Move the magnet and the current spikes on the oscilloscope. Stop it and the needle drops to zero. Turn the coil, swap copper for aluminium, flip the poles, and every field line and number updates live. It was built with Claude Opus 5.5. Faraday figured this out in 1831 with wire, magnets and a lot of patience. Kids today can watch it happen on screen and drag the magnet themselves 😅
