Lectures | 14-19 and upwards | 15 years ago | 1944 views
Rating:

Light is reflected off a flexible shiny surface fixed to the end of a plastic tube. When one speaks into the tubes sound vibrations pass down the tube and make the surface vibrate. The reflected light is therefore sent off from the surface in a con....

Lectures | 11-14 and upwards | 15 years ago | 2743 views
Rating:

When two different types of conductors are pushed into a potato chemical reactions take place charging them up - we have a simple electrochemical cell. A potato, zinc screw and carbon rod produce about 1V. We experiment joining a few of these cells u....

Three Windmills

by Jonathan Hare
Three Windmills
for 11-14 and upwards,
Lectures | 11-14 and upwards | 15 years ago | 1659 views
Rating:

Converting wind power into electricity seems like an ideal way of helping to solve our energy problems. However, the power generated by a windmill is dependent on the wind speed. If the wind drops to half its speed there is as little as an 1/8th of t....

Parabolic Light Collectors
for 11-14 and upwards,
Lectures | 11-14 and upwards | 15 years ago | 6045 views
Rating:

Parabolic surfaces can be used to concentrate energy for example to focus sunlight to heat things. Using an old World War II spot light mirror we demonstrate how easy it it is to concentrate enough energy to cause combustion. Finally, we show how to ....
