electric circuits

It's astounding to think about how our lives would work without electricity. Luckily, we only realize the impact of electricity when the power's out! But this well-researched, at-level volume provides young scientists with an up-close look at electricity, exploring essential scientific topics such as batteries, circuits, conductors and insulators, electricity generation, and safety issues. After each topic's explanation, readers are invited to complete a related activity, through step-by-step instructions, including making a lemon battery, building an electroscope, constructing a wind turbine, and much more. A final quiz allows reader to assess their understanding of electricity facts.

Young makers learn how to imagine, inspire, collaborate and problem-solve as they take on four electrical engineering challenges, including building a robot that moves and creating a light that looks like the night sky.

Helps children learn about electricity and circuits through simple experiments demonstrating basic concepts and facts.

This book presents step-by-step instructions for performing ten electric circuits.
