Activity 3: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Circuit Construction Kit: DC - Lab

Build circuits with batteries, resistors, light bulbs, and switches. Experiment with high voltage batteries and high resistance resistors and bulbs. Take measurements with ammeters and a voltmeter. Explore the effects of wire resistivity and control battery internal resistance. View the circuit as a schematic diagram, or switch to a lifelike view. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.
