PURPOSE: To demonstrate Faraday's Law.
DESCRIPTION: The bulb-and-coil can be "plopped" into a beaker of water, and the bulb lights brightly underwater
SETUP TIME: Medium to high
COMPONENT LIST:
- Bulb (No. 1582) ???
- Coil 37852 ???
- et.al.
SUGGESTIONS: CAUTION: High Voltage and Water
REFERENCES: 2122 4.785 ; PIRA 5K30.35
OTHER NOTES: Actually, the bulb itself takes only 4 V. to light, and the coil puts out only 12 V open-circuited. But there is 1000 V in the primary underneath the beaker.
