Current Electricity - Comparing Lamps in Series Circuits and Parallel Circuits KS3

(0)
Pupils learn that, while a parallel circuit has branches, a series circuit does not. By experiment, they will learn that all the lamps in a series circuit are equally bright as indeed they are in a parallel circuit but that identical lamps are brighter when connected in parallel than in series. Lastly, they will show experimentally that lamps in parallel remain on when one is removed but go out when one is removed from a series circuit. Objective To know that as lamps are added in a series circuit the lamps become dimmer. To know that as identical lamps are added in a parallel circuit the brightness of the lamps does not change. To know that if the lamps in a series circuit are identical, all the lamps are of equal brightness. To know that if a lamp is removed or breaks in a series circuit, the others will go out. To know that if a lamp is removed or breaks in a parallel circuit, the others will stay on.

What are current, voltage and resistance and what is the relationship between them in an electrical circuit? What are the conditions necessary for current to flow in a circuit? Look no further for a unique and engaging explanation of these concepts! This action-packed distance or remote learning package introduces current as a flow of electrons and explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver (the electron) using up energy obtained from food (the battery) and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (metal ions)(high resistance). The resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires is explained and a simulated practical explores the conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.

Measuring current in series and parallel circuits – the animated PowerPoint of this resource demonstrates and explains where to place the ammeter in each type of circuit and then provides sample sets of results to enable students to draw conclusions. Students will also practice drawing circuit diagrams from descriptions and designing results tables. Ultimately pupils will be able to calculate unknown currents using given currents on circuit diagrams. What it covers Current is measured in amps (A). Ammeters measure current. An ammeter is placed in series with the component whose current is being measured. The current is the same at all points in a series circuit. The current in all the branches of a parallel circuit add up to the current leaving/returning to the battery. Working out the unknown current from a circuit diagram.

Current Electricity How Does Adding Batteries to an Electrical Circuit Affect the Current? Why? KS3

(0)
What happens to the current when you add batteries to a circuit? This fully resourced lesson comes with an animated PowerPoint which explains how a battery produces current then guides the student through planning an investigation to discover what happens when the number of batteries is increased. If the apparatus is not available for a lab, a set of results is provided for students to use to draw a conclusion. What’s Covered A battery has a positive and negative terminal. The long line in the battery symbol represents the positive terminal. Batteries are connected positive to negative. A battery contains chemicals. An electric current is a flow of electrons which pick up energy from the battery. As batteries are added to a circuit the lamp gets brighter. A battery provides the push or voltage to make current flow in a circuit. The higher the voltage of a battery the more current flows in the circuit. Current increases as batteries are added to a circuit. Be able to make a prediction and design an experiment to investigate the relationship between the number of batteries and current. Be able to draw a bar graph. Be able to calculate the output of a number of batteries from known numbers of batteries, voltages and currents. Be able to explain how electrons supply energy to components in a circuit without becoming used up themselves.

What happens to the current when the resistance in an electrical circuit increases? This fully resourced lesson comes with a PowerPoint which uses animations to demonstrate current as a flow of electrons, metal ions as the cause of resistance and conductors having high and low resistance, then guides the student through planning an investigation to discover what happens to the current when the resistance is increased. If the apparatus is not available for a lab, a set of results is provided for students to use to draw a conclusion. What’s Covered Resistance is the result of electrons colliding with the metal ions in a conductor. Resistance increases with the number of metal ions such as in a longer wire.

Magnetism - Magnets and Electromagnets Explained for KS3

(0)
A comprehensive and enjoyable introduction to magnetism and electromagnets including an animated investigation into how increasing the number of turns on the coil increases the strength of an electromagnet. What’s Covered Magnetic materials can be made into magnets. Iron, cobalt and nickel and their alloys are magnetic materials. Unlike poles attract and like pole repel. There is an invisible magnetic field around a magnet made up of field lines. Draw the field lines around a bar magnet. The closer together the field lines the stronger the magnetic field. Draw the field lines around two bar magnets with like and unlike poles facing. There are more field lines around the poles where the magnetic field is strongest. The magnetic field strength gets less as distance from the magnet increases. Field lines point away from the south pole and towards the north pole of a magnet. When a magnetic material is made into a magnet, the randomly facing domains all line up to point in the same direction. The Earth acts as though there as a south-type pole at magnetic north and a north-type pole at magnetic south.

If a team member thinks that the selectors pair is not a correct match, they can challenge. Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer but the teacher also has a quick-check answer sheet. If the challenge is correct, the challenger keeps the pair. **Included in this Pack ** 42 question and answer cards Teacher’s answer sheet. Instruction sheet Preparation Use double-sided printing to copy 1 set per group of 4 pupils. Sheets could be laminated to enable year-on-year use. Cut sheets into cards.
