Making Your Own Electricity.

In today’s class we produced electricity by shaking a flashlight powered by our own work, a magnet, and coils. This experiment demonstrated Faraday’s Law. When the magnet inside of the flashlight changes direction, electricity is produced   The greater is the change of direction within the currents, the greater electric currents will be produced to power the flashlight.

 

 


Using Labview we recorded how many times we shook the flashlight in 30 second intervals, and the program assessed how much electricity was produced. As expected, the faster we shook the flashlight, the more electricity produced, and the longer the light would stay on.

Using Excel, we then graphed our results on a scatterplot to illustrate our conclusions.

 

 

For some reason, the labeled axis did not save to the file:   Y= Sum of the Square of the Voltages and X= # of shakes.
