Showing 6 experiments that use the Basic Modular Circuits Kit.
Capacitors and RC Circuits
Students construct a circuit that charges and discharges a large capacitor through a light bulb. They create a model for their observations and...
DC Circuits
Students construct a circuit consisting of two resistors in series and then in parallel. They measure the voltage across the resistors, and the...
Ohm's Law
Students measure the current and voltage across a resistor while varying the output voltage, A graph of voltage versus current will reveal Ohm's...
Ohm's Law
In this lab, students will use voltage and current sensors to investigate the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance in a circuit.
