Dedication
We dedicate our project to Benjamin franklin. We have dedicated our project to Benjamin franklin because he was one of the first people to try and capture lightning. Although he was unsuccessful, he inspired generations of scientists …show more content…
The next step is easy we will simply switch off the switch.
11. We will then turn on the Taser and will let it run for about half a second so that the water is charged enough to power the light bulb. Then we proceed to switch the Taser off as to not over charge our small capacitor. Overcharging of the capacitor can cause a spark which will discharge the capacitor and we will have to charge it again and possibly replace broken parts.
12. We then will wait about five minutes, sufficient time for the electricity to escape or stay depending on if we build it right.
13. Once we have waited sufficient time we will turn on the switch allowing the current in the capacitor to flow in and out of the light bulb switching it on.
14. As long as it switches on momentarily we have succeeded –we have stored electricity. If it however does not switch on, we have either failed at storing electricity or we have used a light bulb that is too high voltage
The only change we made was the capacitor we made it by filling bottles with water half way up and on the outside put tin foil half way up instead of putting them in the tub Pictures
We noticed that the bolt that the tesla coil generated was tiny. We are currently trying to make it generate a bigger spark by tuning …show more content…
Our hypothesis was correct we could leave it for a few minutes and the stored energy would not disappear. These results mean that one day someone can move onto full scale tests.
The problems we encountered:
We found out that a tesla coil makes the wrong frequency in its bolts making the bolts different from lightning and more dangerous, we are only going to use this to show what a blot of electricity looks like.
We tried to make a van de gaff generator because the bolt is exactly the same as lightning (not as powerful). We could not get this to work so we bought Taser which makes the same bolts but is more reliable. Benefit to mankind
Our project benefits mankind because it harnesses an unlimited source of power which is easily useable.
It also leaves absolutely no carbon footprint which means it is a long term power source.
Lightning also has a tremendous amount of electricity that we can harness the same as 145 litres of petrol. Source one: Keith Liebenberg
