    An electric bell contains an electromagnet that produces sound through the interaction of an electric current and a metal clapper. When a switch is closed, current flows through the electromagnet, creating a magnetic field that attracts the clapper and causes it to strike the bell. The circuit then breaks and resets until the current flows again, repeating the buzzing or clanging sound. Electric bells have been used widely in devices like telephones, fire alarms, and at railroad crossings due to their low cost and ability to perform over 100,000 operations with little electricity use.

    ELECTRIC BELL

    Illiyin Sakinah Bt Ahmad Nizar D20191088595

    APPLICATION
    An electric bell is a mechanical bell that functions by means of an electromagnet. When an electric current is
    applied, it produces a repetitive buzzing or clanging sound. Electric bells have been widely used at railroad
    crossings, in telephones, fire alarms, etc.

    WORKING PRINCIPLE

    Clapper

    When the switch is closed, the electric current from the cell flows through the
    electromagnet, producing a magnetic field. The clapper that made by metal attract toward
    the electromagnet. Thus, it strikes the bell which produce a sound. When the clapper attract
    to the electromagnet, it no longer touches the metal connector and hence the circuit is
    broken and the electromagnet turns off. The clapper returns to its initial position then its
    contact with metal connector and the circuit is being complete where the electric current
    flows again. This causes the electric current pass back through the electromagnet and attract
    clapper toward the bell again. The process repeats itself as long the switch is off.
    ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES

    Advantages
    Low cost.
    Less use of electricity.
    Can perform for more than 100000
    operations.
    Warning in danger .
    Detect human or machine errors.
    Assured safety.

    Disadvantages
    Performs only once for one push of bell
    It can be destroyed when there is sudden
    current loss.
    In rainy season we can also get shock
    from it if there is no earthing.
    Requires batteries which may die some
    time unexpectedly
