TESTING AND ANALYSIS

Early Test Results

• Tested magnets with two of Dr. Orehotsky’s coils in the Physics II Lab– One (1) Magnet was able to produce

approximately 1 Volts– Two (2) Magnets were able to produce

approximately 2 Volts

Demonstration Test Results: One Coil

Current Electrical Test Results:Three Coils
