The SEPnet Coil Demonstrates Electricity Generation

The South East Physics Network (SEPnet) (www.sepnet.ac.uk/gcse.php) is exploring various ways to enhance physics learning and A-level uptake, including a series of interactive GCSE revision events. The first event, which includes talks and various physics exhibits by leading teachers and educators, is on energy and the exhibition--called "Who will keep the lights on?"--is travelling around southern UK venues. Here we describe the demonstration that shows how electricity is generated. (Contains 5 footnotes and 2 figures.)
