In this experiment, we used a potato, an orange and a lemon to try to light a led light bulb. To produce electron flow, a complete will light the bulb. To find out if electrons are flowing, you could use a volt meter to measure it. Our light bulb had too high of a voltage, and…Continue Reading Currents from the Kitchen
My classmate and I will be using a citric fruit (lemon or orange) for this experiment because we believe that due to the high levels of acidity in the fruit will result in a good conduction of electricity….Continue Reading Electricity Conductors
