Today we completed a circuit lab. Below you can see some pictures of the students working hard on it.
Tomorrow we will have a spiral quiz over warm-ups we have done and a notes quiz over the notes below.
How do electric circuits,
conductors and insulators work?
Some go with the
flow?
-Conductors- Allow electricity to easily pass through them
-Insulators-prevents the flow of electricity
-Examples of conductors and insulators-
-Copper
Wire=Conductor
-Electric
Gloves= insulator
-Electrical
tape= insulator
-Lightning
Rod=conductor
A path to charge?
An electric circuit is a complete pathway made of conductors
through which electricity cab flow.
Which path to
take?
Series Circuit- An electric current that has only one
pathway to follow to and from the energy source.
Your home electrical system is a small part of a larger
system that includes your city, state and national region.
Many of the forms of energy that you see around your house
begin as electricity.
