The experiments gave the pupils a brief insight into important physical relationships between current, voltage, electric and magnetic fields. Among other things, they learnt about:
- the principle of Faraday's cage
- the force effect of two repelling magnetic fields
- the relationship between alternating currents and magnetic fields
- the effect of high electric fields and field strengths
