Accumulator
A short page talking about how car batteries work.
Gets Charged
A worksheet and lesson plan for younger pupils. Objective: Current will flow around a complete conducting circuit if a battery is present. A switch can be used to break the circuit.
Fun Science gallery
Here you will find instructions showing you how to build scientific equipments from relatively cheap materials. Projects include instructions for making telescopes, microscopes, batteries, sidereal ...
OHMZONE Circuit builder
Create a circuit by dragging components (battery, bulbs, wires, resistors, voltmeter, ammeter) on to a circuit board. You can use the ammeter and voltmeter to check the current and voltage at ...
Norton's Theorem
Any collection of batteries and resistances with two terminals is electrically equivalent to an ideal current source i in parallel with a single resistor r. The value of r is the same as that in the ...
Voltage Divider
The two resistor voltage divider is used often to supply a voltage different from that of an available battery or power supply. In application the output voltage depends upon the resistance of the ...
Thevenin's Theorem
Any combination of batteries and resistances with two terminals can be replaced by a single voltage source e and a single series resistor r. The value of e is the open circuit voltage at the ...
