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 Maxwell‘s Wheel rolls down a rail. A force measurement shows that while the wheel is moving, measured gravitational force of the wheel is slightly smaller compared to it‘s resting state. The explanation for this is the force distribution among the vertical acceleration (which is measurable) and the angular acceleartion of the wheel.
