In this experiment, we had to study Faraday’s law.
Professor gave us a little generator (magnet that moves back and forth inside a coil of wire), which was connected to a robot, and then finally to the computer. In the computer, Labview VI was open, and let us measure the voltage output of the generator.
Our goal in this experiment was simple, we had to show that the faster you shake the tube, the greater will be the generated voltage.
In a thirty second time interval, we had to count the number of shakes. The data given in the Labview and the number of shakes was registered into excel.
First thing we did is to measure how much electricity would be generated if we don’t shake the flashlight.
Then, we would increase the number of shakes in that thirty second time interval.
We increased the number of shakes 5 times, and the result was this:
So, finally, we could show that the faster you shake the tube, the greater will be the generated voltage.
