I am planning to take Physics next semester. We already received our syllabus and I want to start on my project now.
Design
Construct and demonstrate
An arc generator solely driven by electrostatics, magnetostatics, and/or electromagnetics
Techniques using only household materials and a 9V battery.
Actually to produce an ARC generator using only a 9V battery is very tough but we can do that using a DC boost converter. Or you can use the Van de Graaf generator, where you will use the 9V battery to derive a belt that generates a very high static electricity.
Here, I am giving you a very simple circuit of ARC generator using a 9V battery by using the concepts of DC boost converter. Here I am using NE555 with the input of 9V and I got approx 610V DC. Which gives me 1.1 KV of output.
This is the block diagram.
This is the practical circuit.
Hope it will help you. If you have any doubt just write a comment, I will try to solve.
Thank you.
