Acknowledgement

First all we like to thank God for guiding us every time we have meetings and trials of our experiment. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all those who gave us the possibility to complete this investigatory project. Our sincere thanks to all the people who have contributed to and worked for this. Especially to our parents who are always supporting us in all we do. We also would like to give thank to our Physics Teacher, Sir Lemuel F. Valdez for encouraging, inspiring and giving pointers to improve and to finish this project. We also would like to give thanks to Ms. Shiela Mae Hisugan of First Year Planning for providing us the magnet we needed for the experiment and to Mar-Leo Trading for providing the materials that we used. And lastly we would like to give thanks to Mrs. Analyn Saturnino for the snacks that we ate every time we had our group discussion.

Abstract

Title: Electromagnet (Simple features and uses)

No. of Pages: 9

This investigatory project aims to illustrate how to make an electromagnet. It also aims to illustrate the simple features and uses of a basic sample of a electromagnet. This study wants to show the relationship between electricity and magnet. In this study we want to show that the electric current passes through the coil round around the screw, it creates

    2. On the ends of the variable gap magnet there were two small magnetic disks. One arm of the magnet was unscrewed and removed from its housing. A meter stick was placed on the and the arm was on its side parallel to the meter stick. The Gauss-Tesla meter was used to measure the field strength of the magnet. The probe attached to the meter was perpendicular to the meter stick. There were 4 steps to this process:…

    The Working of Wires

    • 11 Pages

    INTRODUCTION Electricity is usually invisible. Except for lightning and sparks, you never see it in daily life. However, light bulbs and a magnetic compass can show you when something electrical is happening. By observing their behavior and making a few assumptions, you can begin forming ideas about electricity. This type of thinking is called “building a model”. INVESTIGATION ONE: WHAT IS NEEDED TO LIGHT A BULB? 1.1 Activity: Lighting bulbs in a loop Insert three D-cells into the battery holder (as in Figure 1.1), and insert two ROUND bulbs (not long bulbs) into a pair of sockets. Use three wires to connect the sockets to each other and to the two “terminals” of the battery holder: 1) the spring inside the case near the red spot, and 2) the metal post on the outside of the case near the blue spot. The bulbs should light and be of similar brightness. The battery, bulbs and wires now form a “closed loop”.…

    The typical business man involved in corporate America works anywhere from six to ten hours per day. Phil, “the Company Man” worked six days a week sometimes until eight or nine at night, making himself a true workaholic. Using his life story before he died Goodman is able to convey her liking toward Phil but her dislike of what the business world has turned him into. Not only does Goodman use a number of rhetorical devices but she also uses Phil’s past as well as the people who were once in Phil’s life to get her message across to her reader. Ellen Goodman sarcastically creates the obituary of a man who dedicated his life to his job and the company he worked for. Goodman uses anaphora, satire, diction, sentence structure, and selection of detail to complete her obituary of this “Company Man”.…

    The invention of electricity has benefited mankind in several aspects of life ever since the 1800s. Over the course of the past two centuries, scientists have been developing theories that serve as the backbone for various devices today. Such intellectuals have been attempting to understand the credibility and applicability of the already existent theories, such as electricity and magnetism. In addition, they have introduced new concepts by either creating them from scratch, or combining other theories. Electricity, for instance, is a form of energy fueled by the movement of charged particles, called electrons. It is an electrical current if these electrons flow from high to low voltage. If the charged…
