Current and Resistance in an Electrical Circuit The Relationship Explained KS3

(0)
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. Plan experiment to investigate the relationship between resistance and current by adding lamps to a circuit and predict the outcome. Draw up a results table. Draw a bar graph of the results of the experiment.

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.

Finish and reinforce a forces module or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson which includes: Forces – definition, units, measurement Weight and mass Friction Air resistance Balanced and unbalanced forces Pupils have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school tool shed in which the school caretaker has been accidentally locked. The pack contains: PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer); crossword; word search; dominoes activity; worksheet; code breaker sheet; answer keys; lesson plan. If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes. Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the secretary to try the combination to free the caretaker.

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.

An action-packed and enjoyable distance learning or home learning introduction to current as a flow of electrons. It explains the relationship between current, voltage and resistance using the analogy of a diver using energy obtained from food and giving off heat as they swim through pipes filled either with water (low resistance) or water and rocks (high resistance). Food as a source of energy is replaced by a battery, diver by the electron and rocks by metal ions. Both scenarios are animated in the PowerPoint. This explanation is then extended to compare the resistance of long, short, thick and thin wires. The simulated practical explores conditions needed for current to flow in a circuit.
