Lesson Plan: Electromagnetic Induction in Transformers Physics
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to calculate the change in potential difference and current produced by a transformer.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- recognize that transformers are used with alternating current,
- recognize that transformers change both the potential difference and the current of an electrical signal,
- recall that magnetic materials can be used for the cores of transformers,
- use in all permutations,
- use in all permutations.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- electromagnetic induction.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- electrical power generation,
- generators,
- transformers that are not efficient.
