Curated OER
Circuits
In this circuits worksheet, learners read about total voltage, total resistance, and total current. Students learn about voltage across a resistor and short circuits. After completing the reading, learners complete 4 circuit questions...
Curated OER
DC Branch Current Analysis
Engage your class in physics with this series of questions. The first question is the most hands-on and asks learners to build their own circuit. The rest of the questions are related to current analysis. Class members solve 7 problems...
Curated OER
Resistor-Capacitor Circuits
In this physics worksheet, students determine whether the current flows through the resistor after the switch is closed and explain why. Then they determine whether the capacitor will discharge faster or slower if there is an increase in...
Curated OER
DC mesh current analysis
In this circuits instructional activity students complete a circuit building exercise and answer questions about different circuits. There is an answer link.
Curated OER
Digital Logic Signals
In this electronics activity, students interpret schematic diagrams and analyze circuit components to answer 9 short answer and problem solving questions.
Curated OER
Circuit Basics
In this circuits worksheet, students compare voltage, current, and resistance. Students draw a battery with a resistor, switch, and light bulb. This worksheet has 6 short answer, 1 matching, and 6 drawing questions.
Curated OER
The Path of Electrons
Students engage in an interactive "hot potato" demonstration to gain an appreciation for the flow of electrons through a circuit. They role play the different parts of a simple circuit and send small items representing electrons (paper...
Curated OER
Electromagnetism - Transformers
Students build small circuits using transformers. In this electromagnetism lesson plan, students will show that transformers increase voltage which leads to an increase in current. An ammeter and the brightness of a light bulb will be...
