Abstract

Our investigatory project focused on the energy stored on the flashlight which has been charged for the exact hour. The energy stored at the flashlight could either produce light or electrical for the phones to charge.
We researchers have guessed that the energy that is stored in the flashlight has a capacity to charge a cellphone.

    Nt1310 Unit 5 Activity 2

    The Unit 2 Activity 2 CER discussed the origin of mobile charge in charging and discharging circuits, and my claim was that mobile charge originates from every conductive surface in a circuit. In that activity, we created a charging circuit with a 3 cell battery pack, 2 round bulbs, and a capacitor, and then placed a compass under four different areas of the circuit and recorded whether or not there was a deflection. The procedure for the discharging circuit was similar, except there was no battery pack in that circuit and deflection was only measured at three places. I used the evidence of the the immediate compass deflection, the instantaneous and simultaneous lighting of the bulbs, and the movement of charge in a circuit without a battery pack to create a clear argument for mobile charge originating on all conductive surfaces in a…

    The Working of Wires

    • 2582 Words
    • 11 Pages

    INTRODUCTION Electricity is usually invisible. Except for lightning and sparks, you never see it in daily life. However, light bulbs and a magnetic compass can show you when something electrical is happening. By observing their behavior and making a few assumptions, you can begin forming ideas about electricity. This type of thinking is called “building a model”. INVESTIGATION ONE: WHAT IS NEEDED TO LIGHT A BULB? 1.1 Activity: Lighting bulbs in a loop Insert three D-cells into the battery holder (as in Figure 1.1), and insert two ROUND bulbs (not long bulbs) into a pair of sockets. Use three wires to connect the sockets to each other and to the two “terminals” of the battery holder: 1) the spring inside the case near the red spot, and 2) the metal post on the outside of the case near the blue spot. The bulbs should light and be of similar brightness. The battery, bulbs and wires now form a “closed loop”.…

    Over the next decade, the most vibrant Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) markets will involve the contactless charging of portable and mobile equipment, in particular consumer electronics and electric vehicles. Today, development teams worldwide are stretching the boundaries of physics using available components to create systems that are able to compete with the efficiencies of wired solutions while offering the conveniences of wire free connections. In the 1890's famous scientist and engineer Nikola Tesla dreamt of wireless transfer of power. He envisioned a world, in which all electricity is transferred wirelessly, but the idea was more or less abandoned and highly efficient copper cables became the basis for modern electricity infrastructure. Then, a few years ago, Marin Soljačić, an assistant professor of physics at MIT, was dragged out of bed by the insistent beeping of a cell phone. In his exhausted state, he wished the phone would just begin charging itself as soon as it was brought into the house. So, Soljačić started searching for ways to transmit power wirelessly. Soljačić found magnetic resonance a promising means of electricity transfer because magnetic fields travel freely through air yet have little effect on the environment or, at the appropriate frequencies, on living beings. Working with MIT physics professors John Joannopoulos and Peter Fisher and three students, he devised a simple setup that wirelessly powered a 60-watt light bulb. The MIT work has attracted the attention of consumer-electronics companies and the auto industry. The U.S. Department of Defense, which is funding the research, hopes it will also give soldiers a way to automatically recharge batteries.…

    Radio charging is used for charging items with small batteries and low power requirements, such as watches, hearing aids, medical implants, cell phones, MP3 players and wireless keyboard and mice. Radio waves are already in use to transmit and receive cellular telephone, television, radio and Wi-Fi signals. Wireless radio charging works similarly. A transmitter, plugged into a socket, generates radio waves. When the receiver attached to the device is set to the same frequency as the transmitter, it will charge the device's battery. A universal wireless battery charger for portable and mobile devices can use ambient Radio Frequency (RF) or electromagnetic signals as a renewable energy resource, emitted by different sources for communications.…
