Amp up your understanding of electricity and magnetism with DOZENS OF DO-IT-YOURSELF EXPERIMENTS
Electricity Experiments You Can Do At Home is a hands-on guide that helps you master the principles of electrical currents and magnetism. Each of the book's three sections--direct current, alternating current, and magnetism--begins with step-by-step instructions for setting up your lab for the experiments that follow. Using inexpensive, easy-to-find parts, the experiments progress from basic to more complex and will spark ideas and encourage inventiveness. Expect unexpected results when you experiment with:
Diode-based voltage reducer
Compass-based galvanometer
Photovoltaic illuminometer
Utility bulb saver
Ripple filter
Xener-diode voltage regulator
AC spectrum monitor
Ampere's law with wire loop
AC electromagnet
Handheld wind turbine
And dozens more projects
