In this experiment, low amperage is applied to one side of a transformer, which consists of two coils with a different number of windings and an iron core, while a much higher amperage can be measured on the other side. This current is sufficient to melt a nail.

In this experiment, a conductor swing is set in motion within a magnetic field, and the voltage difference at it‘s ends is measured. The electrons in the conductor are shifted periodically due to the Lorentz force while the conductor swings. This works the other way round, too: By applying an electric current to the conductor, the swing is moved sideways.
