What Guage of Copper do you need 30 cm of

22 Guage

100

How many Coil's are in a Tesla Coil

Two coil's the Primary and Secondary coils.

100

What can a Tesla Coil turn using air as a core.

A Lightbulb 

100

Insulator

A substance or device which does not readily conduct electricity.

200

What is his Nationality

Serbian-American

200

What Guage of Copper do you need 10 meters of

28 Guage

200

What does the Capacitor do

It stores up energy and releases it in quick charges

200

What testing is used on electronics to see what needs to be better.

EMF testing

200

Conductor

An object or type of material that allows the flow of charge (electric current) in one or more directions

300

When did he immigrate to the U.S

1884

300

What Voltage of Battery is needed

9V
300
What does the Spark Gap do

A spark gap conducts the built up energy when the voltage becomes high enough from the capacitor.

300

What do Tesla coils send out that are used in Radio Technology.

Electromagnetic waves

300

Voltage

the “pressure” that pushes electricity. 

Higher Voltage + Higher power

400

When did he make the Tesla Coil

1891
400

What Resistor is needed

22k OHM's Resistor

400
What are the two ways to make the Tesla Coil stronger

By running a stronger current through it from a different battery or adding more loops to the secondary coil.

400

How does a wireless phone charger work

A oscillating magnetic field is created by the transmitter which induces an electric current in the receiver coil used to charge the phones battery.

400

Dielectric

the max voltage the material can withstand before breaking down

500

What was his First patent

The rotating magnetic field

500

What Transistor is needed

The 2n2222A Transistor
500

How does the Primary coil induce a high voltage in the Secondary coil.

Electricity in the primary coil creates a 

magnetic field which induces a high voltage 

current in the secondary coil

500

What is the main use in High Voltage testing

To test Insulators and coatings on wire.

500

Electromagnetic induction

The flowing electric current generates a magnetic field and that magnetic field helps ionize the current into the air.
