  1. By: David Upchurch Jacob White Kevin Lovell Scott Andrews The Green Lantern

  2. So Whats the Deal? • Magnets, containing a magnetic field measured by “flux” (Φ ) or quantity of magnetism, spin inside the generator casing. • This spinning of the magnetic field causes a “change in flux” which produces an electrical field. • This phenomenon is known as Electromagnetic Induction. • Wrapping copper wire around the generator casing allows for the transmission of the electromagnetic field.

  3. The Green Lantern's Materials • Wood- FREE! • Cardboard housing- FREE! • Magnets- $10.00 • Fan Blades- FREE! • 30 gauge wire- $7.00

  4. The Green Lantern'sDesign • Wooden Base, with braces holding upright • Used 30 gauge wire, cardboard magnet housing • Generator is a compact design, simple but efficient • Bulb mounted on top of wooden base

  5. Equations • 1.15 volts • 29 miliamps P = 0.5 x ρ x A x V3 • P = (.5)(1.225)(.0153)(6.7)^3 • = 2.82 Watts • Pelectrical= I x V = .029 amp x 1.15 volts • = .03335 watts • Efficiency = Useful power/ Total Power • = 1.18%

  6. Conclusion • All in all it cost us $20.00. Simple design but effective. • Produced 1.2 volts • 1.18% efficient • Trial and error = best friend • Took a total of 14 hours The Green Lantern
