Faraday's Law
Original Sim and Translations |
Topics
- Faraday's Law
- Magnetic Field
- Magnets
Description
Investigate Faraday's law and how a changing magnetic flux can produce a flow of electricity!
Sample Learning Goals
- Explain what happens when the magnet moves through the coil at different speeds and how this affects the brightness of the bulb and the magnitude & sign of the voltage.
- Explain the difference between moving the magnet through the coil from the right side versus the left side.
- Explain the difference between moving magnet through the big coil versus the smaller coil.
