Learning Objective
I will be able to simulate an online electrical circuit.
Students will be able to apply Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws on physical circuits.
Project Description
After learning about Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws, I practiced utilizing these on three simulated circuits: one series, one parallel, and one combination. Our class also received instructions on how to breadboard. We created physical series, parallel, and combination circuits and used a multi-meter to determine voltage and current. We applied Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws to verify the readings with calculations.
