This activity set allows students to conduct activities to illustrate electromagnetism, induction and basic transformer experiments. This kit consists of a plastic base, a laminated iron core, mounting fixtures, and six coils protected in a heat resistant film. Topics covered include Lenz' Law, Faraday's Law, how iron cores increase magnetic field strength, and electromagnetic induction itself. This versatile piece of equipment can also be used to teach about how transformers used by power companies carry electrical energy.
The Worcester Circuit Board Kit contains all the components necessary to quickly construct a variety of circuits. This Worcester Board provides the basis for clear layouts of electrical circuits and reduces the number of connecting leads required. The main component is a base board fitted with cell holders and terminal posts.
