Purpose:

What fruit/ vegetable will give off the most electric charge?

 

Hypothesis:

The lemon will give off the most electric voltage.

 

Materials:

• Lemon, lime, potato, carrot, apple, banana
• Wire
• Ammeter
• Nail

 

Procedure:

• First we are going stick a copper wire and a nail into our fruit/vegie
• We will attach both conductors to the ammeter with the wire.
• Measure the charge.

 

Observations:

• Lemon: 1v
• Lime: 0.8v
• Potato: 0.6v
• Carrot: 0.5v
• Apple: 0.5v
• Banana: 0.3v

 

Results:

The lemon conducted the most charge and the banana conducted the least.

 

Conclusion:

In conclusion our hypothesis was right. The lemon created the most static charge.
