Day 3

I thought the circuits activity would be a fun activity to do with my physics students when we get to working with parallel and series circuits. The materials needed are minimal also so that is great for a smaller school. When we looked at the bulbs connected in series we could see that the bulbs become dimmer as more bulbs are added, but each bulb is equally bright to one another. But when we looked at circuits is parallel, when more bulbs were added the brightness still remains the same and all the bulbs are equally bright.
