In this lab experience, students will investigate electromagnetic induction. A coil of magnet wire is attached to a galvanometer and the deflection of the needle observed as neodymium magnets are moved in and out of the coil in varying orientations. They will then investigate how an increase in the number of coils affects current output.
Safety:Before conducting the lab, review the safety precautions on the student page with the class. Discuss any safety precautions that are specific to your science laboratory or classroom.
