Year 13 Physics students are currently working on their last external: Electricity and Electromagnetism. As part of this external, the students have to understand how an induced voltage (and potentially an induced electrical current) can be produced using a generator through Faraday's Law by changing the magnetic flux linked to coils of wire. This can be done by rotating the coils of wire or a permanent magnets. Year 13 students got to experience generating their own current to light an LED by spinning a handle attached to a coil of wires inside a permanent magnet on a small hand-held generator. 

Year 12 Physics students are also currently working on their Electricity and Electromagnetism External. As part of this external, students must be able to use Ohm's law to establish which lamp in a circuit will be the brightest or the dimmest. Students can build the circuits to verify their findings.
