An electricity generator working model demonstrates how mechanical energy can be converted into electrical energy using electromagnetic induction. This principle is the foundation of power generation in real-world power plants.

Key Components of the Model:
- Magnet: A strong magnet, either permanent or electromagnet, generates the magnetic field.
- Coil: A coil made of insulated copper wire represents the conductor through which electricity is generated.
- Rotor and Stator: The rotor (rotating part) contains the magnet, and the stator (stationary part) contains the coil, or vice versa, depending on the design.
- Crank or Rotating Mechanism: A handle or gear system to manually spin the rotor.
- Output Device: An LED light or small bulb is connected to the coil to demonstrate electricity generation.
How It Works(electricity generator):
- Setting Up the Model: The magnet and coil are positioned so that they interact closely without touching. The magnet is attached to the rotor, and the coil is fixed in place around it.
- Rotating the Rotor: When the crank or gear system is turned, the magnet rotates. This motion creates a changing magnetic field around the coil.
- Electromagnetic Induction: The changing magnetic field induces an electric current in the coil due to Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction.
- Lighting the Output: The induced current flows through the connected circuit, lighting up the LED or bulb, showing that electricity has been generated.
Applications and Learning:
- Real-Life Insight: This model represents how generators work in power plants, where turbines powered by water, wind, or steam rotate the magnets.
- Educational Value: It teaches energy conversion, the concept of electromagnetic induction, and the basics of how electricity is produced.
This hands-on model is an engaging way to explain how mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy, making it perfect for science exhibitions.
