WEEK 3
Stage 1:
- Making the solenoids
Materials used:
- copper wire
- tape
- wire
- scissor
Here are the video I had recorded. This is just to show that current deflected whenever the magnet is entered the solenoid.
- Mat's Design
Materials used:
- Plywood
- Hammer
- Chisel (pahat)
- Glue
- Springs
Analysis:
Based on the video above, I can see that electromagnetic induction going to be work here. But in order to produce high output current, therefore the design of the solenoid must be seriously consider. Based on the video, the current only deflect just a little, only micro ampere. Thus the solenoids needs more turns in order to get the best result. The solenoid that i made is just only 500 turns so i need about 800 to 1000 turns.
For mat's design, the plywood is taken because i need insulator type material in order to make a base. Do not forget that i used magnet in this project. Therefore i need to keep away all the conductors or material that may attract the magnet to the mat. Otherwise it may effect the result.
Conclusion:
I have to make the solenoid one more time and see the result either it can give a higher current.

Below is the image of the solenoid with 800 turns.
Analysis:
The solenoid manage to produce high current. But even though
it can, i am still facing problem to found out the result. The magnet
needs to enter the solenoid for many times in order to get a result. As a
result, i need to do again the solenoid. For this time, I knew that the
solenoid's hole is big which mean i need to make it smaller. Then i have to do it again. Wish me luck!
