Project Blog- Electricity project (4/11-4/15)
About The Project: This week we were assigned an electricity project. We had to make an electrical invention. Here are some of the things that we had to include in our inventions: 1. An invention that has a circuit with a switch in it. 2. A title and list of materials used - both the conductors and insulators 3. A drawing of your invention. 4. A schematic diagram of your invention 5. A description of how your invention works. What materials carry the current? Is your circuit a series or parallel circuit? How does the current flow? How brightly does the light (if used) shine? How is the current switched on and off? For my invention, I decided to make something that has to do with a map. I was thinking about it for a few days and then I decided that it would be a map of the USA. You would have to figure out the 3 states on the map (with wires) that I have been to. There are 10 different states (options) that have wires. If you connect point A to...
