SERIES AND PARALLEL CIRCUITS - LAB
PROBLEM:
Are there different paths that electricity can take, and still perform
the same function?
HYPOTHESIS:
MATERIALS:
Alligator clips, lamp holders, bulbs, batteries
SERIES
CIRCUIT
Use materials to make a series circuit. Include at least one light bulb
and one switch. Draw your final circuit below. Make sure your teacher
looks at the circuit before you take it apart.
|

Series Circuit |
PARALLEL CIRCUIT
Using materials to make a parallel circuit. Draw your final circuit
below. Make sure your teacher looks at the circuit before you take it
apart.
|

Parallel Circuit |
CONCLUSIONS:
(How do parallel and series circuit differ?) |
