Flow of Energy through Electric Currents
In this lesson, students will develop and use the model of a simple circuit to explain how energy is moved through electric currents. The current and voltage in circuits with 1 dry cell and 2 dry cells are compared. Students observe that the ammeter and voltmeter readings are greater in the circuit with 2 dry cells as compared to the circuit which has only one dry cell. Also, the bulb in the circuit with 2 dry cells glows brighter than the bulb in the circuit with only 1 dry cell. This lesson will show students that as the voltage increases, the current also increases.
