Electric Motor / Generator Kit

Description

This Electric Motor / Generator is a single small DC electric motor with a two step pulley attached.

It is clamped to the bench with the pulley overhanging the edge so it can wind a thin cord around the pulley to lift a weight from the floor to measure the electrical work done and to compare it with the mechanical work done. The weight can then be allowed to fall to drive the motor as a generator to recover power from kinetic energy.
