Apparatus of magnetic field measuring device with long wires and power supply. The purpose of this lab is to measure the magnetic field while adding loops of wire around that plastic tube.

Data recorded with the experiment. Chart on the left is collected by my group and the on the right is presented by the professor. The deference between the two is that the professor drilled a hole in the middle of the tube and placed the magnetic field sensor meter in that hole to get an accurate result.

The chart presented by the professor magnetic field vs time.

Set up and conclusion with the galvanometer magnet and coils. The question asked was "how to make the galvanometer read higher"


 This experiment used two coils an Alternating current (A/C power) and a Christmas light. What is going on in this picture is that the red object seen controlling how much power is going through. By using it switches up and down.  When Professor Mason lowers the coil with Christmas light will emit light. This technology is similar to a Phone charger. Where current is sent through in opposite directions making power travel
