Description: 

PASCO dissectible transformer
There are 5 coils that can be arranged in many ways. The blue coil has 200 turns, the two yellow coils have 400 turns, and the two gray coils have 800 turns.

Instructions: 

Loosen the know on top of the disectible transformer slightly and turn the top bar 90 degrees.
You can now slide different coils in any configuration that you want.

Purpose: 
From Faraday's law of induction the EMF per turn is the same for both the primary and secondary coil V1/N1 = V2/N2.
