Hand-Crank Generator Model No. EM-8090 Introduction The Hand Crank Generator (EM-8090) consists of a permanent magnet DC motor and is used for demonstrating how manual work can be applied to energy conversion. The generator plugs into the EM-8677 Series/Parallel Circuit Board, allowing the demonstration of both series and parallel circuit pathways.
Model No. EM-8090 Hand-Crank Generator Demonstrating the Electrical Path through a Parallel Circuit: 1. Insert the black lead into the COMMON port and the red lead into the PARALLEL port of the Series/Parallel Circuit Board (EM-8677). 2. With Switches 1 and 2 open, rotate the Hand Crank Generator in the positive direction (shown by the arrow on the label of the generator) at approximately 1 to 2 revolutions per second. Note what happens. 3.
