Energizing Science Projects with Electricity and Magnetism


Book Description

A collection of exciting experiments unlocks the mysteries of electricity and its connection with magnetism, offering simple projects using common materials to explain the physics of electricity.




The Science of Electricity & Magnetism


Book Description

Switches are marvelous things - they control the most useful and convenient form of energy in our modern world, electricity. By powering machines and devices it turns night into day, stillness into motion, silence into sound and cold into hot - or the other way around. Yet electricity itself is invisible, so we study the science of it by its effects.




Experiments with Electricity and Magnetism

Kids will learn all about electricity and magnetism through these fun and easy-to-follow experiments.




Electricity and Magnetism Science Fair Projects, Using the Scientific Method


Book Description

Unlock the secrets of circuits, batteries, and magnets. Readers will learn all about current, static charges, motors, and more. All they need are some common household materials. If readers are interested in competing in a science fair, they can get many great ideas that will help them create a unique, award-winning science project.




A Project Guide to Electricity and Magnetism


Book Description

Electrical and magnetic forces are so much a part of our everyday lives, that we don’t often think about how they work or how they are related. Before digital music players and eBook readers were commonplace, though, scientists put a lot of effort into discovering just what these forces were and how to harness their energy in ways that would make life easier. Through their experimentation, they discovered the connection between electrical and magnetic forces. They found ways to bring electricity to people who wanted it. Today, we benefit from these discoveries, but there are always new things to discover! Whether you try the experiments and activities in this book for fun or for a science fair project, you’ll get an up-close look at the forces of electricity and magnetism. Enjoy each of the shocking activities in this book as you discover the pull of science!




Energy Experiments Using Ice Cubes, Springs, Magnets, and More


Book Description

No energy to spare? This book is here to help. Readers will discover how cool temperatures help to keep a taiga wet, and the relationship between a taiga animal's wide feet and pressure. Each experiment follows the scientific method, and can be completed in an hour or less. Many experiments also include ideas for more detailed science fair projects.

EXPLORE ELECTRICITY!


Book Description

Given the pace of how we harness and utilize electricity, as well as the importance of developing new sources of energy, electricity is a timely subject for kids to explore. In Explore Electricity! With 25 Great Projects, kids ages 6-9 will learn the basics of electricity: currents, circuits, power, magnetism and electromagnetism, motors and generators. They’ll become more attuned to how much they rely on electricity in their daily lives. They’ll also understand that while electricity is a wonderful resource, and one we’ve used to our advantage ever since it was discovered, the future of how we make and use electricity is still changing and there are things they can do today to impact these changes. This title invites kids to experiment on their own with 25 simple projects that will “spark” their learning and enthusiasm, including making their own clothespin switch, lemon battery, compass, electromagnet, and flashlight, as well as generating their own “lightning.” These hands-on activities combined with informational text will excite kids about STEM? the interrelated fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
