Currents From The Kitchen

With this experiment we used a complete circuit to produce electron flow in our fruit/vegetable. The fruits/vegetables we used were lemon, orange and potato. The purpose of this experiment was to light a light bulb using our fruits and vegetables. Our light bulb didn’t glow with either food, to find out if electrons are flowing you could use a voltage meter. Our light bulb didn’t glow because the fruits/vegetable didn’t produce enough voltage/electrons. We could modify our experiment by using bigger fruits/vegetables so that more electrons can flow. The transmission metals and the crocodile clips cause electrons to flow. I can use this in my everyday life when there is a power outage and I need to power a device or, if I don’t have access to electricity, I can use this instead. I feel like this tactic won’t be the next “big thing” because there are not big enough fruits/vegetables to power a town or a city.download_20151115_160014download_20151115_160026download_20151115_160044download_20151115_160049
