Download Now Delight by Tan Seng Kwang is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. An educational board game for 2 or any even number of players (in 2 teams) based on the concepts of current electricity. Targeted at high school / junior college physics students, Delight is a fun way of practising the use of physics concepts such as

1. electrical power $$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$$
2. the potential divider rule.
3. wires bypassing a device short-circuits it.

This game can be easily printed on A4 paper and the game pieces can be cut up for use. Game Play

1. This game is meant for 2 players or 2 teams of players. Each player/team has the following tiles:
   • 2 x light bulbs
   • 3 x T-shaped wires
   • 2 x crossed wires
2. The players will take turns to place the tiles on the board.
3. Each new tile must have at least one wire connected to an existing wire on the board.
4. The game will end when the last tile has been placed on the board.
5. The person with the brightest bulb will win.In the event that there is an equal number of opposing bulbs of the same brightness, it will be considered a tie. If there are three bulbs of the same brightness, the one with two of these bulbs wins.

Electromagnetic Induction and its Effects

To explain a phenomenon that happens due to Electromagnetic Induction, we can use an acronym CFILE to structure our answer. C stands for cutting of flux or changing of flux linkage. This is necessary for electromagnetic induction to happen. When a wire is pulled through a magnetic field perpendicular to it, it is said to be cutting the field lines. When a magnet enters a coil of wires, we can say that the magnetic flux linkage is increasing. F stands for Faraday's law, which states that the induced e.m.f. in a circuit is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux-linkage or to the rate of cutting of magnetic flux. I stands for an induced current. However, do note that this is only possible if there is a closed circuit or a path for the current to flow. L stands for Lenz's law, which states that the direction of the induced e.m.f. is such that it tends to oppose the flux change causing it, and does oppose it if induced current flows.  E stands for effect. This is really just stating how an induced current or Lenz's law causes the phenomenon in question.
