Electromagnetic Induction Lab Challenge You can send electricity through a conducting wire to make a magnetic field. Is the reverse possible? Can you use a magnet and a conducting wire to make electricity?

Electromagnetic Induction Background Michael Faraday (1791 - 1867) discovered a relationship between a changing magnetic flux Φ, and the potential within a conductor ε: Known as Faraday's Law, this relationship is defined by two key elements, the number of turns in a coil N, and the change in magnetic flux Φ. Magnetic flux is related to the strength of the magnetic field, the area enclosed by the wire loop and the angle between them. Because of the geometry of our experimental setup, we can say that the flux is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field.

Electromagnetic Induction Safety Be careful with magnets. Strong magnets can disrupt electronic devices and severely pinch any skin that comes between them.

Electromagnetic Induction Sequencing Challenge A. Connect the Voltage Probe to the SPARK Science Learning System. B. Drop the magnet through the coil, then stop data collection. Hint: This step is used twice. C. Compare the Voltage produced by the 200 turn coil to that produced by the 400 turn coil on the graph. D. Remove the 200 turn coil and replace it with the 400 turn coil. The steps to the left are part of the procedure for this lab activity. They are not in the right order. Determine the correct sequence of the steps, then take a snapshot of this page.

Electromagnetic Induction Part 1 - As the Coil Turns In the first part of this lab, we determine if passing a magnet through a coil of wire gives rise to a voltage (or electromotive force), and secondly, whether the number of turns in the coil N has any effect on the amount of voltage as predicted in Faraday's equation. Note: For the best comparison, always be sure to use the same orientation of the magnet when dropping it through the coil.

Electromagnetic Induction Part 2 - More Magnet The second part of Faraday's equation refers to the amount of change in magnetic flux. From our observations of magnets, different types of material produce different strengths of magnetic field. Try at least two magnets of different strengths to see if the strength of the magnet makes a difference. Use only one of the coils and drop the magnets from the same height each time.

Electromagnetic Induction Part 3 - The Faster the Flux If the strength of the magnet affects the change in flux, how about the speed at which the magnet passes through the coil? Studies of acceleration show that the farther an object falls in a gravitational field, the faster it travels. If the magnet passes through the coil faster, it is reasonable that the magnetic flux in the coil is changing faster. Use one of your coils to find out.

The tube should be wide enough to allow your magnet to pass through freely, but narrow enough to fit inside the coil. You will mark four positions on the tube. With the tube in place, you will drop the magnet from the opening of the tube, then slide the tube through the coil to each mark, dropping the magnet from the tube opening each time.
