Activity No. 1 Generated Voltage in A Coil Objectives

1) The document describes an experiment to investigate generated voltage in a coil. 2) When the coil is moved through a magnetic field, a voltage is generated and detected by a galvanometer. The direction of voltage depends on the direction of coil movement. 3) Rotating a miniature generator clockwise or counterclockwise also generates voltage that is detected by the galvanometer, with polarity depending on the rotation direction. The experiment aims to understand the relationship between motion, magnetic fields, and induced voltage.

ACTIVITY No.

1
GENERATED VOLTAGE in a COIL

OBJECTIVES

1. To find out the generated voltage in a coil when the lines of force of a magnet cut
across its windows.
2. To discover the polarity of generated voltage.
3. To determine the relationship between the speed and the number of conductor turns to
generated voltage.

INSTRUMENTS and MATERIALS

Galvanometer
Horseshoe Magnet
Miniature Generator
Conductor Turns

DISCUSSION

If a galvanometer is connected to the ends of the conductor turns and said conductor turns
is placed between the south pole and north pole of a horseshoe magnet, there will be no
movement on the galvanometer since the conductor turns is at rest. But when the conductor turns
is moved upward and cutting the magnetic fields, the galvanometer pointer deflects; and if
moved downward, the galvanometer pointer deflects in the opposite direction. In these, the
conductor turns was perpendicular to the lines of force and there was relative motion between the
conductor and the lines of force of the magnet thereby producing a generated voltage.

If the armature of the miniature generator rotates clockwise, the galvanometer twill
deflect showing that there is current flow; and if the armature rotates counterclockwise the
galvanometer reading will deflect in the opposite direction.

PROCEDURES

I. A. Place the north pole of the horseshoe magnet between the conductor turns
connected to the galvanometer as shown in Figure 1.1.
B. Observe and record in Table 1.1 the movement of the galvanometer if the
conductor turns is at rest.
C. Move the conductor turns upward and downward. Observe and record the
movement.
Figure 1.1

II. A. Connect the galvanometer to the terminals of the miniature generator.


B. Rotate the armature of the miniature generator clockwise at speed s1.
C. Observe and record in Table 1.2 the polarity and amplitude indicated by the
galvanometer.
D. Rotate the armature of the miniature generator counterclockwise at speed s2.
E. Repeat II-C.
