Generator Driven by Falling Weight

Description
In this demonstration, a weight is attached to a string wound around the shaft of a generator. As the weight falls, it turns the generator's shaft, converting gravitational potential energy into electrical energy. The generator powers a light bulb or other device, with the speed of the falling weight and the generated voltage providing a clear illustration of energy conversion and conservation. This setup shows the principles of electromagnetic induction and the practical application of converting mechanical energy into electrical power.
