PROCEDURE

[this is instruction for you, you should convert these instructions in to third person passive form]

1. Visit phet simulation website and open the Faraday's law simulation.

2. Observe the screen and find the different control icons to change the  number of loops in the coil, to change the polarity of magnet etc.

3. Pick up the magnet and insert in the coil and observe the deflection in voltmeter ( check the voltmeter and field lines box).

4. Next change the polarity of the magnet and observe the change in direction of deflection in voltmeter.

5. Change the speed of movement of magnet and observe the difference in amount of voltage induced.

6. Repeat the observation for amount of voltage by inserting the coil with same speed in  few turns and then coil of many turns.

OBSERVATION

Table 1: Observation of cause of electromagnetic induction

S.N	Action	Observation	Remarks
1	Magnet inserted in the coil	Field lines changes in the coil	Deflection occurs
2	Magnet kept at rest inside the coil	Field lines doesn't change	Deflection doesn't occurs
3.	Magnet taken out from coil	………………..	…………………….

Result 1. ………………………………………………………………………………….

Table 2: Observation for direction of current induced 

S.N	Action	Observation	Remarks
1	North pole of magnet inserted in coil	Deflection is in ........(right/left) side	Current in induced in one direction
2	South pole of magnet inserted in coil	Deflection is in ........ side	Deflection occurs in opposite direction

Result 2: Direction of induced current depends upon the direction of magnetic field.

Table 3: Observation for amount of current induced current with the speed of motion

S.N	Action	Observation	Remarks
1	Magnet moved slowly	Deflection is ......... unit	.........(more/less) current is induced
2	Magnet moved quickly	Deflection is .......unit	........(more/less) current is induced

Result 3: Amount of current induced is directly proportional to ........................................

Table 4: Observation for amount of current induced current number of turns of coil

S.N	Action	Observation	Remarks
1	Magnet moved in coil of less turn	Deflection is ......... unit	.........(more/less) current is induced
2	Magnet moved in coil of more turns	Deflection is .......unit	........(more/less) current is induced

Result 4: ........................................
